Scania Performance Summary July–Sept 2025: Orders up while profitability is impacted by investments

Scania delivered a resilient performance in the third quarter, with strong orders amid profitability pressure, impacted by lower volumes and strategic investments. Focus on China and efficiency is strengthening long-term competitiveness.

Sales revenue declined in the third quarter, mainly reflecting lower delivery volumes. The adjusted operating result was also impacted by currency headwinds, market mix and cost related to the build-up of the industrial hub in China. Truck deliveries declined, mainly in Brazil where high interest rates, inflation and tariffs curbed demand – partly offset by increased deliveries in Europe and Asia. Scania maintained a stable 17.9 percent market share in Europe, despite the contracting total truck market. Order intake increased significantly in the third quarter, supported by focused commercial efforts in key markets.

“The business environment remains unstable, but Scania continues to demonstrate resilience,” says Christian Levin, President and CEO of Scania and TRATON Group. “Our increasing orders show we are maintaining customer confidence while preparing the company for long-term growth.”
