The Scania 124G was one of the most iconic trucks from Scania’s Series 4, arriving in Brazil in the late 1990s (around 1998) as the successor to the classic 113 line. It introduced a new level of technology, comfort, and power to heavy transport in the country.
It featured an electronic engine of about 12 liters (11.7L), with power ranging from 360 to 420 hp, making it one of the strongest trucks of its time.
It also marked the transition from fully mechanical trucks to a more modern era, bringing features such as:

All of this made it much more comfortable and efficient for long-distance hauling.
