Scania Interim Report January-​September 2022

Net sales increased by 29 percent

Demand for Scania’s trucks remains strong globally but in some European markets we can see slightly lower transport activity among our customers. This is however not reflected in the order intake. The order book for trucks is still large and we are continuing to be restrictive in the placing of orders to ensure the quality of the order book and the ability to adjust prices to the high cost inflation.

The third quarter has been characterised by a continued unstable macroeconomic and geopolitical situation. High inflation, interest rate hikes and energy crisis in Europe now point to a weaker economic development.
