    Class 8 models are Mercedes Actros and Axor, MAN (TGX), DAF XF and CF, Volvo FH and FM, Iveco Stralis, Ford Cargo, Scania, Sisu (yep, it is Volvo brand now, so Volvo powertrain and Renault truck cab), Renault Magnum, Premium, Kerax, Byelorussian MAZ, Ukrainian KRAZ (they tried to make cabovers, but they make conventionals now, generelly for military and off road application 6x6 trucktors and dump trucks), Russian ZIL (generally conventionals), KAMAZ cabovers (with Cummins engines and ZF transmissions), Ural trucks (military and SD), UK BMC. In Russia they build International cabovers for EU application. And some Chenese trucks are used in EU (Dong Feng, Foton).. they use facelifted cabs from discontinued EU truck, Cummins engines. I'd say about Chech TATRA. I saw Phoenix with Paccar MX and DAF CF cab

    About brand ownership.

    DAF is Paccar brand

    Renault, Sisu, Mack and Volvo are from Volvo groupe

    MAN works in cooperation with International, so Maxxforce is really MAN TGA/TGX engine

    Daimler trucks in EU got Mercedes Star on grill

    Pablo,Sisu isn't a Volvo division.
    The new Sisu's are with Actros cab and engines.
