MAN TGX trucks

The MAN TGX vehicles are heavy-duty trucks: their maximum allowable weight varies from 18 to 80 tons. They have been manufactured since 2007 in Germany. In 2008 the vehicle was awarded the International Truck of the Year title. And three years later, the EfficientLine version won the Green Truck award according to German magazine VerkehrsRundschau. The twin car model is Framo E180/280, and its predecessor is the TGA.

MAN TGX: the background

Introduced in 2007, the vehicle is characterised by excellent aerodynamics. The manufacturer used a cabin roof spoiler, bumper with hidden air inlets as well as wing mirrors of a streamlined shape with a low air resistance. The latter ones ensure a wide view angle, thanks to which the area of blind spots is significantly reduced.

Offered are MAN TGX tractor units, dump trucks, lumber trucks, garbage trucks as well as street sweepers, fire-fighting trucks and rescue vehicles. The axle configurations can be the following: 4 × 2, 6 × 2, 6 × 2/2, 6 × 4, 8 × 4, 8 × 4/4. The vehicles can be fitted with one of the three cabins: XL, XLX and XXL. The width of the first one is 2,240, the length is 2,280 and the height is 1,660 mm. The second and the third types are 280 and 490 mm higher respectively, with all other parameters being equal. The XL cabin is fitted with only one bunk, while XLX and XXL can have two of them. The last one is considered the largest one in Europe and is ideal for long-distance trips. The driver is able to stretch out on the bed to his full height, and to have all essentials at hand.

In 2010, the MAN TGX trucks were facelifted, in the course of which, the range of the available engines was brought into conformity with the Euro 5 standard. Moreover, the manufacturer managed to reduce their weight and optimise the performance of gearboxes, which resulted in the reduction of fuel consumption by 1.9%.

The facelift of 2012 affected, in particular, the fuel injection system. Now the power units meet the requirements of the Euro 6 standard, have the exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR), diesel particulate filter. Apart from that, the engine features a “top down” cooling system. Among driver assistance systems there are: adaptive cruise control ACC with the Stop & Go function, emergency brake assist EBA and electronic stability program ESP.

There were presented also limited editions Lion Pro and Performance Line which were characterised by luxurious interior design. In particular, some elements of passenger compartments were trimmed with natural leather. Besides, there are fuel-efficient trucks Business Lion and Efficient Line. In comparison with others, they consume up to 6.35% less fuel, which increases the level of their ecological friendliness.

There are D38 vehicles intended for transporting especially heavy materials. Their maximum allowable weight is 120 tons. Moreover, these commercial vehicles can be used even in off-road conditions.
