Essie the Scania Electric Truck

Say hello to Essie, a fabulous Scania electric truck ⚡
Essie is a smart, strong, fun and is also passionate about keeping our planet green! Her name is a play on in the country acronym and domain extension for Sweden, SE, and as Scania originates from Sweden, the name, Essie (SE) seemed like a clever way to incorporate the connection.

As the newest member of the cast of characters, Essie brings a spark of energy and a whole lot of fun as she helps teach important lessons about sustainability and caring for our planet. She is delighted to join her bestie, Vabis, and to meet all of the other Vroom-Town trucks. She is looking forward to showing them more fun ways that they can help the environment!

Vabis the Scania Truck

Vabis is a wonderful Scania truck who has lots of cool technology and is very clever. He is also very popular because he is caring and kind. Vabis got his name from the origins of Scania, the global truck and bus manufacturer, headquartered in Sweden. The company used to be called Scania-Vabis, but the Vabis part of the name was dropped in 1968. I thought it would be a nice ‘nod’ to the history of Scania to call the new truck Vabis! Vabis is now excited to spend time with all of his friends in Vroom-Town.
