With two driven wheels on one single axis, these lighter vehicles are perfect for businesses that deal with smaller loads that are travelled across short distances.

These vehicle types have three axles, with only one being driven. This configuration gives better stability and manoeuvrability to the vehicle and allows for a more even weight distribution, making them perfect for transporting heavy loads over long distances.

Featuring four axles, two at the front and two at the rear, and eight wheels, this powerful tractor unit type makes light work of heavy loads, naturally lending itself to the construction industry thanks to its powerful engine and overall stability. 

In addition to our exceptional Scania tractor units, we also offer a range of other brands including Volvo, Mercedes-Benz and DAF, with each vehicle being sold with assured maintenance and quality checks.

What is a Tractor Unit?

With several different types of tractor units across the market, it can be difficult to discern one kind of vehicle from another. A tractor unit is, put simply, the engine of any truck, providing the power to haul heavy trailers of varying sizes and capacities. Connected to a trailer using a link called the ‘fifth wheel’, the tractor unit is the most important part of the entire vehicle. 

As versatile, fuel-efficient vehicles, tractor units are ideal for businesses that work quickly and dynamically with loads of varying weights and quantities. If you’re still wondering ‘What is a tractor unit?’, read our blog to make sure that the vehicle is ideal for you over one of our many other available trucks and tippers.

Tips for buying a Tractor Unit

The important thing to remember when searching for Scania trucks for sale is to remember that every unit is different, meaning that you’ll have to find the right one for you and your business. It’s essential that you evaluate the best model and series for your needs, checking everything from capacity to fuel efficiency to engine output, and much more. Each type of unit fulfils different needs and requirements, so you don’t want to opt for something that is either too underpowered or too overpowered for what you intend to use it for. 

Each of our Scania vehicles is given a comprehensive health check before they’re sold, so you don’t have to worry about the quality of your pre-owned tractor unit before you take it away. When buying, however, it’s important to check the maintenance history of the vehicle to ensure that you know the specifics of your truck from top to bottom.
