The Scania 3-series is a truck model range introduced in autumn 1987 by Swedish truck manufacturer Scania.^[1]^: 134 It is the successor of the 2-series.The 3 series came in a range of different engine sizes and horsepower from 9.0 litre 230 horsepower (170 kilowatts) all the way up to 14 litre V8 500 horsepower (370 kilowatts). Production of the 3-series was stopped after the 4-series were introduced in 1995.
