Scania-Vabis L20

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The Scania-Vabis L20, L60 and L71 Regent were heavy duty six-cylinder trucks built by the Swedish firm Scania-Vabis between 1946 and 1958. The L20 arrived in 1946, two years after the four-cylinder L10, with a six-cylinder version of the company module engine, and a trailing axle version was sold as the LS20. The largest bogie truck carried a payload of 10.2 tonnes. In 1949 a direct injected diesel developed with Leyland Motors renamed the range L60 and LS60, and a synchronised five-speed gearbox arrived in 1951. The final development of 1954 was the L71 and LS71 Regent, which gained air brakes and, from the autumn of 1955, optional power steering.
