Scania v8 730hp

which 480 e4 or e5 maybe manual manual cause higher fuel cosumption because you dont have such good skils or road is too hard for it

 

also question for you

which r480

e4 or e5

it is not same thing

480 use 11.7L engine from 1995Y with turbocompound and hpi and that engine had just add on egr and it is not good on fuel and also performance

470 e4 is even worse but 470 e3 is best engine on fuel

and had pretty good performance lot of people says that 164 480 and r500 are pointless because of r470

and r480 e5 is another story it is designed for egr have lot of technics

and it is very good on fuel

only mercedes xx48 v6 can stand side by side with dc13 07 and scania new r series is little better than this merc


dc13 07 in old r series use same fuel as r500 e5 (dc16 19) but r500 e5 use another 2L of ad blue which can be very expensive if you are small carrier here is over 1.2€/L for good one bad will cause lot of problems with system)

new r series use 1L less than old in comparison

 

i should to predict this your market is very oriented on those egr e4 engines

i heard that is best thing to buy r420 e4 and chip it

here there is only few numbers of egr e4 trucks we used to buy e3 until 2008

and here 420 and 500 are most popular e5

in last time there is more and more 400 and 440 egr e5

 

those comparisations between r480 and r500 was with 40ton in driving in central europe or here in south east

maybe r500 or stronger could be more economic than r480 with your 48-50ton 3+3setups and such hard roads
