Opticruise Gearbox with Clutch Pedal

This Scania R500 is fitted with Scania Opticruise automated manual gearbox with clutch pedal.

This earlier Opticruise system uses the clutch pedal mainly for moving off, stopping, reversing and low-speed manoeuvring, while the gearbox handles gear changes through the automated Opticruise system during driving.

This gives the driver the benefit of automated gear changes while keeping the strong commercial Scania driveline.

Retarder

A retarder helps improve downhill control and reduces wear on the service brakes, especially when operating with heavy trailers.
