Why is my truck stuck at 70 MPH without speed limiter?

[CraddyMcPatty]

I have turned off the speed limiter and upgraded my engine multiple times (500HP now) and it is still stuck at 70 MPH as max speed. Anyone got any solutions? (I drive a Scania R Normal Roof if you were wondering)

Transmission gearing would be my guess.

There is your problem right there, you need to be using the "Go Fast" roof not the normal one 😉😉
But what Qrazy said...
you need longer legs in the final, go for the differentials with the lower numbers, your acceleration wont be as quick but you will be faster in the top end, down side your torque and speed will bleed off on the hills real fast depending on weight..

Didn't fix it, only increased acceleration.

Alright Thank you

70 mph is 112 km/h in non-ret@rd unit, are you sure about that?

Well, approximately 70 MPH. Exactly then it's 68 MPH

oh you're using a speed mod?

Euro trucks are not designed to go at 120 kph, also you need to take into account the weight of the trailer + the cargo.
Also how much hp a truck has is irrelevant, what matters in trucks (and in diesel engines in general) is the torque.

Rubbish.

High torque needs high horsepower to maintain it's rate of work so it is very relevant.

Craddy's game let him/her play how they wish to play.

Euro trucks are not designed to go at 120 kph, they have a shorter wheelbase compared to us trucks and an higher center of gravity. If they went as fast as us truck they would tip over.
In fact, in ets trucks are easier to tip over compared to ats.
Otherwise the irl speed limit.for trucks wouldn't be 90kph all across europe (instead in the us is around 130kph).
What mantains the rate of work is the clutch, it is the job of the clutch to keep the engine rpm at the peak range. Majority of long range trucks in europe (at least continental europe) have less than 500hp, especially fleet trucks. Higher engine hp are used when pulling heavy loads, especially special transport.
