Sri Maju Cergas Logistics Sdn Bhd
(SMCL) has added 12 units of the Scania Super
XT G460A6X4HZ heavy duty prime movers to their fleet. Their acquisition has further strengthened their partnership with Scania Malaysia which began quite recently in 2023. The handover of 12 units and a signing
ceremony for 10 additional units were held at Scania Malaysia, Bukit Jelutong recently.
During the event, Khoo Sze Chyuan, Managing Director of Sri Maju Cergas Logistics,
received the keys to the trucks from Joyce Antar, Managing Director of Scania
Southeast Asia and witnessed by Dato’ Sri Marcus Tan, Co-founder of Sri Maju
Cergas Logistics Sdn Bhd.
Scania’s Super XT heavy duty truck range has been designed to withstand demanding environments, ensuring maximum uptime and enhanced productivity for SMCL. Designed for rough terrain in mind, the Scania Super XT’s steel bumper up front offers excellent protection for the front-end components of the vehicle, reducing unwanted downtime, and costly cab and chassis repairs while improving mobility with its larger attack angle. It also features a readily-accessible tow pin at the front capable of towing up to 40 tonnes – the strongest in the market.
Mr Khoo said “The Scania Super XT
G460A6X4HZ sets a new industry benchmark with its (460hp and) high 2,500Nm torque at
just 900rpm and also delivering up to 8% fuel savings. This marks a major milestone for
SMCL, as these vehicles enable us to further expand our tipper and cargo
operations. Together with the dedicated support from Scania Financial Services, we
can confidently move forward and focus on what truly matters, (which is) growing our
business.”
The XT also includes a robust side mirror with a rugged,
patterned surface for scratch-resistance, and a high air intake designed to supply
the engine with the cleanest air possible, suitable for dusty environments. These
features work together to help SMCL overcome most obstacles. The
G460A6X4HZ’s increased chassis height also improves ground clearance and
enhances driving comfort.
The purchase of the prime movers are a complete package from financing, maintenance, fleet monitoring systems as well as driver training. With the purchase of the Scania Super XT G460A6X4HZ, SMCL will gain access to a
suite of Scania Digital Services. This will further enhance operational efficiency and
reliability for SMCL, as the Fleet Management System Control Package provides
valuable insights and information about their fleet via the My Scania portal and Fleet
app. These tools offer SMCL real-time vehicle positioning, performance monitoring,
CO₂ emissions tracking, service planning, defect reporting, and driver evaluation—
enabling the team to quickly identify opportunities for improvement.
Aside from that, SMCL’s drivers will gain access to the My Scania digital ecosystem
through the Scania Driver app. This allows their drivers to view core vehicle data,
submit pre-departure checks, track their driving time and performance, view service
appointments, and locate the nearest Scania workshop. Their drivers will also receive a free subscription of Scania ProDriver, which is a digital coaching service
that will help them cultivate fuel-efficient driving habits.
“With all the data at SMCL’s fingertips, they can further optimise vehicle usage and
enhance operational efficiency and reliability through Driver Training and Coaching
. Scania’s tailored driving masterclass also enables their drivers to be safer and
more efficient on the road,” stated Joyce at the ceremony.
SMCL’s fleet of Scania trucks are supported by an entire ecosystem designed to
keep their operations running. With 14 workshops across Malaysia and Singapore,
24/7 Scania Assistance, 22 roadside assistance vans, and 158 trained and certified
workshop crews, help will always be within reach.
