  I beg to differ,Most SG auto buses engine roar even though the speedo show only 55kmh.I've taken Msian Triton Lance which engine does not roar loud with it speedo showing above 65kmh..The roar on acceptable speed suchs as 60 due to it speed limiter

  Scanias dun roar very loud

  I muz say some BC driving Scania K230UB need more training. They tend to release the accelerator too fast.

  The speed limiters make e engine inefficient by making it not go over 60kph, wasting diesel n at e same time, hi chance of overheating e engine
