The MAN TGX 2016 Efficiency in long-haul transport

THE MANY SIDES TO THE MAN TGX
If you want to find success in international long-haul transport, you need to shiftyour transport performance up a gear and step on the brakes in terms of cost.That is whe-re the MAN TGX comes in, setting the benchmark for the highest level of energy efficien-cy, reliabilityand cost-effectiveness, even with emissions-optimised engines. With its testedtechnologies,it produces the best possible values in terms of fuel consumption. It offers highpayloads and delivers optimum body compatibility. What’s more, the new efficiency is reflec-ted in its appearance: its dynamic design will cause a sensation on Europe’s highways.

The MAN TGX will be available complete with new practical features from 2018. The driver’sworkplace has a much tidier look to it and the sleeping area has been further optimised.

The new ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) Stop-and-Go function enables drivers to get throughtraffic jams without becoming fatigued. Rest assured, the MAN TGX will reliably help you meet your profit target. Thatcombinedwith its perfectly coordinated services are a sure-fire way to success. We are not the only ones to see it that way. The TÜV agrees with us. For years, theTÜV has been certifying that the MAN TGX achieves the highest standards of reliabilityand the lowest incidence of defects when compared to the competition.

POWER RIGHT DOWNTHAT LONG ROAD
The MAN TGX has the power to get you further down that road. With the new MAN D15, D26and D38 enginesfor the Euro 6 emission standard and the text generation of transmissions,the best and most powerful ever MAN TGX is there for you now. Specifically, this means more hp and additional torque in all gears and with all transmission variants(not with the 640 hp engine). The MAN TipMatic®with the SmartShifting shift function delivers efficientuse of MAN TGX Power. The result? Faster transport speed and continuous traction, particularly ef­fective on uphill gradients. However, with the new MAN TGX you also benefit from reduced fuel consumption. With MAN Efficient­Line 3, it is even possible to save up to 6.35 % on the fuel bill.

EFFICIENCY EN ROUTE
Long-haul vehicles should ideally have a great deal of torque, combined with great fuel efficiency. Just as you do in the new MAN TGX. As soon as you turn the ignition key, you can feel the majestic power of the engine. That is because the Euro 6 version of the MAN D15, D26and of the MAN D38 deliver a convincing additional engine power and more torque in all gear ratios and transmission variants (not with the640 hp engine). The Common Rail diesel engines MAN 15 and MAN D26 with cooled exhaust gas recirculation also have service intervals of upto 140,000 km. These engines do more than just set standards in terms of reliability and service costs.

With the MAN TGX Efficient Line 3, MAN also provides a comprehensive fuel­saving package. This saves diesel costs, reduces CO2emissionsand delivers a decisive competitive advantage. Cost savings of up to 6.35 % compared to the previous version can be achieved. The 4­and 6­cylinder engines with two­stage turbo­charging guarantee ample pulling power right across every engine speed range, enhancerunning smoothness and optimally utilise every litre of fuel.

MAN approves the MAN D15, MAN D26 and MAN D38 engines for use with paraffinfuelsin accordance with EN15940. Fuels that comply withthis standard include hydrogenated vegetableoils (HVO), coal to liquids (CTL), gas to liquids (GTL) and biomass to liquids (BTL).

The new MAN D15 engine will be available from the middle of 2019. Like the MAN D20 engine, it has very good dynamic handling thanks to itsoptimal turbocharger configuration, but offers more payload.The weight of the engine has been reduced by approx. 230 kg as compared withthe MAN D20, and fuel efficiency has been increased. Even at low engine speeds, the maximum torque is available. The MAN TurboEVBec in conjunction with the MAN D15 engine enables gradual regulation of engine brake output up to a maximum of 350 kW.In addition, numerous optimisations of the new MAN D26 engine concept result in greater power at the same low fuel consumption and a weightreduction of around 80 kg.

EFFICIENCY MEETSPERFORMANCE
Great performance, powerful torque and low consumption of fuel and AdBlue®. The outstan-ding energy efficiency of the new MAN D38 engines really does pay its way. The MAN TGX delivers powerful traction and achieves high average speeds even on mountain roads.It is capable of operating in economy mode at all times – the disengageable air compressor facilitatesthis. In order to achieve maximum reliability and service life, TopDown cooling is employed. This assuresremarkably effective cooling of all cylinders and this in turn reduces the impact on components sub­jected to high temperatures. The “domed valves” achieve a long service life for valves and valve seat races. Another very weightyadvantage is the payload benefit. In the performance class from 397 kW (540 hp) to 471 kW (640 hp),the new MAN D38 engines are among the “lightweights”.

EFFICIENCY IS PRE-PROGRAMMEDINTO THE MAN TGX
With the MAN TipMatic®, MAN has stepped up yet another gear in terms of efficiency. With the MAN TipMatic®, the vehicle automatically detects loads and angles of inclination and optimises the shiftstrategy to ensure, for example when setting off, that the best and most appropriate gear is always selected. The Smart­Shifting function is a further development of the familiar SpeedShifting function that minimises interruptions in traction, forexample when changing gears on an uphill gradient. Also, the MAN TipMatic®saves the shift strategy and shift functions in the control unit of the system. This enables you toadapt shift characteristics individually at any time to suit operational conditions, thereby allowing you to start your day offon an efficiency setting.  In addition to the “PROFI” full version, there are specifically pre­programmed software variants fora vast array of different application areas. The FLEET software version, for example, is the optimum solution for use in largefleets or for rentals. It greatly reduces the need for manual intervention, which in turn prevents the incidence of operatorerrors. Particularly when drivers are changed frequently, or when poorly trained drivers take to the wheel, this significantlyreduces wear and tear on the vehicle and cuts fuel consumption.

THE MAN TGX KNOWS EVERY HILLAND THE RIGHT GEAR FOR EACHOCCASION

THE MAN TGX KNOWS EVERY HILLAND THE RIGHT GEAR FOR EACHOCCASION
Anyone wishing to cover more distance on one tank must adopt an anticipative driving style. With a MAN, the truckdoes that for you. The further development of the GPS­assisted cruise control, MAN EfficientCruise®, has been available since 2016. On thebasis of map material stored in memory and the GPS position of the truck, it can detect uphill and downhill gradients onthe  route ahead. The system uses this data to adjust the vehicle speed continuously and efficiently. In doing so, it utilisesthe dynamic change in kinetic energy. For example, unnecessary downshifts are avoided on uphill gradients. In conjunctionwith EfficientRoll, MAN EfficientCruise®can let the vehicle roll automatically in dips in the road or at the start of a downhillgradient. At the very minimum, fuel consumption ceases to be a continuously fluctuating issue. MAN EfficientCruise®savesup to 9% on the fuel bill.

GREAT VIEWS
The MAN TGX can expect numerous equipment highlights to make the interior even more driver-friendly andoptimisedfor vehicle operation. The warm sand and graphite tones of the interior panelling, grained plastic surfaces, satin­chrome­plated door handles andthe seat covers have already been lending the cab a comfortable yet stylish atmosphere. The optional darker “Urban Concrete” colour will be available for the cockpit. It is a hard­wearing colour scheme for all sur­faces that may come into contact with dirty hands or work clothing during vehicle deployments in dirty conditions. The lookof the cab interior can also be customised with three optional variants for the all­round trim strips (in brushed aluminium,Net­Black and wood).

The multi­function steering wheel forms the perfect interface between vehicle and driver: various functions are integratedinto the steering wheel in a clearly laid out and intuitive manner. Without taking your hands off the wheel, you can call upvehicle information, receive telephone calls and adjust the radio settings. The driver can freely adjust the height and angleof the multi­function steering wheel, which is also available in leather. A slimmer centre console and a coolbox/storage box, which can be completely stowed under the bed, create a morecomfortablesitting and standing experience in the central area. And yet, the coolbox offers more space. The cup holdersare more flexible, and the bunk control panel in the longer cabs with beds is more convenient. The lighting in the livingspace provides a cosier atmosphere thanks to goose neck lights.

The function­based switch layout and the colour display offer the driver a modern, ergonomic workplace. In the MAN TGX,comfort and working conditions for the driver have been improved thanks to the 1.5 dB reduction in interior noise comparedto the previous series. The exterior of the MAN TGX also gives a self­assured first impression. A new plastic bumper with a slatted structureenhancesthe look of the vehicle and also optimises the flow of cooling air. It can be optionally fitted with chrome slats.

Man TGX MADE FOR COMFORT

TOTALLY IN THE COMFORT ZONE
How you sit affects how you drive. For drivers who cover 130,000 kilometres or more every year, exemplary seat ergonomics are animportant factor for general well-being and performance. After a long hard day, drivers should not feel it in their back. That is why the new MAN TGX provides air­suspended comfortable seats with inte­grated head rests and three­point seat belts which the driver can adjust individually, such as through pneumatic height adjustment and verticaldamper setting. With the Alcantara leather seat, the genuine leather covering provides the optimum combination of comfort and durability inthe areas subjected to the greatest wear and tear. Whether it is seat heating, pneumatic lumbar support or side contours and shoulder support,there are almost no limits to your options. This also applies to the aesthetics. The ultimate luxury is the climate­controlled seat which ensures apleasant warm or cool feeling at any time. With respect to the onboard air conditioning, the air­conditioning system with automatic temperaturecontrol does the job perfectly. A diesel heater, an auxiliary water heater and a park air­conditioning system are available as optional extras.

The cockpit can also be adapted to suit the individual needs of the driver and is perfectly designed for comfortable and safe operation. Thenew high­resolution, four­colour LCD display in the instrumentation is clearly structured: coloured indicators on the 4­inch display aid readabilityand orientation, making it easier for the driver to spot notifications, such as activated assistance systems or warnings. A digital speed displaysupplements the analogue dial. In addition, menus and controls boast colours coordinated with the MAN Media Truck infotainment system.This infotainment system with its large touchscreen, colour display and optional navigation data, boasts features including a Bluetooth interfaceand USB/auxiliary input. Practical details such as the wipe­clean door interior cladding and the compressed­air connection to simplify cleaningoperations ensure that the cab can be kept clean – enhancing driver satisfaction in the process. Drivers also benefit from a 1.5 dB reduction ininterior noise in comparison to last year’s series, further improving their working conditions and comfort.

The new, electric glass elevating roof makes the cab even cosier by allowing daylight to stream in. The glass elevating roof makes the interiorfeel really light and airy and enables an optimal exchange of air without the driver feeling a draught. The roof is controlled electrically, therebyincreasing the driver's level of comfort.

No matter which cab you choose, it is certainly going to be a good choice because all of these cabs, as you would expect, comply with the moststringent crash safety requirements and offer optimum occupant safety. Especially for construction site vehicles, a virtually identical steel fenderis available for all cabs.The optional darker “Urban Concrete” colour will be available for the cockpit. It is a hard­wearing colour scheme for allsurfaces that may come into contact with dirty hands or work clothing during vehicle deployments in dirty conditions.

HERE YOU REALLY CAN GETA GOOD LIE-DOWN

HERE YOU REALLY CAN GETA GOOD LIE-DOWN
The MAN TGX does more than offer optimum freedom of movement, huge storage space and a friendly atmosphe-re. It is also designed for ultimate standards of living and sleeping comfort. You need to be wide awake for the demanding job of being behind the wheel. So it’s even more important that you sleepwell. The high­quality beds with slatted supporting frame and optional multi­zone cold foam mattress treat you to a level ofcomfort close to what you’d expect at home.

As an alternative to the second bed, the multi­function storage unit provides approx. 200 litres of storage space for clothingand bags. When the vehicle is parked, the second driver can use it to take a rest. Otherwise everything is neatly stowedaway. Large cupboards above the windscreen in the XXL and XLX cabs offer ample space for luggage and other equip­ment. The middle console provides numerous storage possibilities. For personal equipment, there is a large storage boxwhich can be accessed either from the inside or from the outside as well as an additional storage box which can only beaccessed from the outside.

The gooseneck lights and an easy­to­reach control unit for the bunks make for a pleasant atmosphere and greater comfortand allow the switches for the interior lighting, window lifters and sliding roof to be controlled. An alarm clock with an LCDdisplay, 12V or 24V sockets and a USB power socket with a 5V connection on the top, e.g. for a mobile phone or tablet,round off the handy features. The control unit is on the right side of the vehicle. It can be placed either side of the top bunk,meaning you can choose the position you want to lie in.

The new coolbox/stowage box with integrated bin can be stowed fully under the bunk. A handy tray can be placed on thebox or stored separately, providing a lot of extra space and some comfortable legroom when sitting on the bunk. Never­theless, the new layout still offers more cooling space and additional storage compartments. The feature that allows cupsor ashtrays to be placed on the top has also been optimised: up to four retaining devices can be fixed in the middle, withineasy reach of the driver and co­driver.

EVERYTHING INSIDE,AND ALL AT A GLANCE

EVERYTHING INSIDE,AND ALL AT A GLANCE
It is the driver who turns efficiency into motion. His performance at the wheel is the key toreliable transport and to a safe, cost-effective driving style. So it’s vital that the workplace iswell equipped for this. In the redesigned MAN cockpit, everything is in the right place. The displays are clear, while frequentlyused switches and switches requiring quick access are close to the driver. To ensure intuitive opera­tion, interrelated functions are grouped into switch groups, which are always in the same position inall vehicles and series. Having this standardised layout simplifies operation for drivers when switchingvehicles. The dial switch for the MAN TipMatic®automated gearbox is now in the driver’s field ofview. The main panel of controls now houses all switches vital to operation and driving, while relevantfunctions for add­ons can be assigned to a second, optional panel of switches at a later date. Placingthe panel of buttons for essential functions, such as interior lighting, above the driver provides easyaccess even while driving.

The instrumentation takes centre stage, with its LCD display in four colours. This four­inch, high­resolution colour display supports legibility and orientation, and highlights features such as activatedassistance systems and warning messages to enable quicker recognition. A digital speed displaycomplements the analogue display. In addition, menus and controls boast colours coordinated withthe MAN Media Truck infotainment system. The air­conditioning panel features displays with a whitebackground, making them considerably easier to read thanks to the better contrast. Comfort and working conditions for the driver have been improved thanks to the reduction in interiornoise by 1.5 dB compared to the previous series.

GREAT ENTERTAINMENT

GREAT ENTERTAINMENT
MAN offers some practical features with its MAN Media Truck infotainment system. The standard MAN Media Truck variant includes a 5" TFT display with touchscreen and SD card slot.On request, it’s also available with a hands­free system, Bluetooth audio streaming, USB/AUX inputs,and DAB+ digital radio. In addition, the MAN Media Truck Advanced version offers a larger 7" display,voice control, a hands­free system for a telephone, video display via USB & SD, traffic information viaradio, and a maximum of two camera interfaces. MAN Media Truck Navigation includes a specialisttruck navigation system. Also, the versions MAN Media Truck Advanced and Navigation offer thefunction of “Twin Pairing”, which enables two mobile phones to be connected to the system in parallel.Both variants can also be provided with a hook­up for a rear­view camera.

The new “Mirror Link” function transfers the user interface of mobile devices to the infotainment sys­tem, enabling safe operation via the multi­function steering wheel and the system itself (connection viaUSB cable). The navigation screen also continuously shows maximum speed limitations (dependenton the map data including the respective information). The digital radio (DAB/DAB+) is easy to accessand use via voice control.

YOU CAN ALWAYS REST ASSURED ABOUT ONE THING: EVERY DRIVE WITH MAN

YOU CAN ALWAYS REST ASSURED ABOUT ONE THING: EVERY DRIVE WITH MAN
With MAN, there is the right cab for every requirement – and a maximum level of comfort and ergonomics travels with you wherever you go.
This is because our cabs are designed to facilitate fatigue­free, concentrated driving, relaxing recovery and maximum occupant safety. All cabs provide optimumsafety. The mirror concept contributes to this, with main and wide­angle mirrors, a large ramp mirror and front mirrors. The problem of the blind spot has been moreor less eliminated. To provide an even better overview, the Infotainment versions of the MAN Media Truck Advanced and Navigation systems can be supplied withpreparations for a rear­view camera. This equipment uses the screen to show pictures from a retrofitted camera.
Many useful details such as the optional washable interior door panelling, easy­care fittings, a compressed­air terminal that turns cleaning into an extremely simplejob and an optional headlight washer unit make easy work of the task of keeping the cab clean.

There is a choice of three cabs for the MAN TGX:

  • XL cab: Compact size: comfortable cross­cab access from door­to­door and a comfortable bed as standard give users of the XL cab an impressively spacious experience.
  • XLX cab: Full standing height, all­round comfort: the XLX cab is exactly right for the fleet segment – the long­haul cab par excellence. With a spacious interior, pleasantatmosphere,practical storage compartments, a comfortable bed and the option of a second bunk bed, the XLX cab sets standards in its class.
  • XXL cab: Large, larger, XXL: the XXL cab is one of the most spacious in Europe – for maximum comfort and optimum freedom of movement in international long­haul trans­port. 2100 mm standing height, two comfort beds, versatile shelving and stowage combine to make this the greatest cab for long­distance drivers.

MAN ASSISTANCE EQUIPMENT
Electronic stability program (ESP)
ESP protects you from unpleasant surprises. ESP sensors constantly monitor the driving dynamics.If there is a risk of imminent skidding or tipping over, the individual wheels are braked accordingly and,where necessary, the engine torque is reduced. In this way ESP stabilises the vehicle and keeps itsafely in the lane. MAN offers the electronic stability program for vehicles with leading or trailing axlesand even for 4­axle vehicles or multiple tractors.

MAN BrakeMatic®brake system with ABS and ASR
The most important distance is the braking distance. To prevent any nasty surprises, the electronicbrake system (EBS), including ABS and ASR, ensures reduced braking distances. The couplingforce control for optimal balancing of the trailer and/or semitrailer brakes enables perfect brakeperformance, reduced braking distances and evens brake lining wear along the entire vehiclecombination to increase the service life of the linings.

MAN ComfortSteering*
MAN ComfortSteering helps the driver to steer and forms the basis of other assistance systems suchas Lane Return Assist (LRA). Because the steering forces are adapted to the road speed, the strain istaken off the driver and there is ease of movement when manoeuvring and ability to stay in a lane athigh speed. Irrespective of the axle configuration, a small steering wheel is fitted (Ø 460 mm) and amore direct steering gear ratio is adopted.

Continuous braking
EVBec®: As a further development of the MAN EVB engine brake (Exhaust Valve Brake), the EVBec®has many advantages, e.g. an improved braking effect by controlling the exhaust gas back pressure,significantly increased brake output especially in the lower engine speed range, overheating protec­tion during long braking operations and constant brake output whether the engine speed is rising orfalling. Three brake output stages are available. The retarder is a hydrodynamic continuous brake integrated into the gearbox housing. Its brake out­put depends on the driving speed, with the best performance achieved in the medium to high speedrange. The brake output level does not depend on gearshifts or clutch operation. This increases driving safety during long descents by relieving the load on the service brake system.

Brake assistant
The brake assistant registers speed and pressure when the brake pedal is operated and optimises theapplied brake pressure through to full brake force. It recognises an emergency stop when it is initiatedand immediately applies the largest possible brake pressure.

Emergency Brake Assist (EBA)
As even a brief moment of distraction can lead to an accident, MAN has developed the anticipatoryEmergency Brake Assist (EBA). It gives drivers an advance warning of impending collisions, providingthem with valuable time to react. The system automatically initiates braking in an emergency. The op­timised Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) features a more advanced traffic monitoring system by usingtwo independent sensor systems (radar and video) to detect a potential collision more quickly and toissue a warning signal as early as possible.

Lane Guard System (LGS) including Lane Return Assist (LRA)1
The electronic Lane Guard system permanently monitors the lane ahead of the vehicle. If drivers strayfrom the lanewithout activating a flasher, they are warned by an acoustic signal. Depending on thedirection in which the driver has strayed, the loudspeaker on the left­or right­hand side emits rumble­strip noise, which the driver intuitively understands correctly. LGS increases the driver‘s awareness ofstaying in the lane, thus preventing many a dangerous situation. The Lane Guard System (LGS) with Lane Return Assist (LRA) helps drivers stay in their lane andactivelyprevents the vehicle straying from the lane. If the system detects that the vehicle is drifting outof the lane, it independently steers the vehicle back to driving straight ahead. The vehicle is not keptcontinuously in the lane; drivers must keep their hands on the steering wheel (hands­on detection)and are responsible for guiding the vehicle at all times. Drivers can override the corrective steeringtorque at any time. The function also works in the dark and increases transport safetyand reliability.

Adaptive Cruise Control ACC with stop-and-go function2
Adaptive Cruise Control automatically evaluates the distance and differential speed of the vehicle infront and ensures a safe distance through electronic intervention in the accelerator or brake pedal.ACC can be used at driving speeds from 25 km/h and helps the driver to stay relaxed while driving.The stop­and­go function is new. In slow­moving traffic, congestion or when driving in city traffic,the truck automatically brakes to a stop behind the vehicle in front, and either moves off again inde­pendently (when the truck is stopped for fewer than two seconds) or when the driver depresses theaccelerator or presses the button on the multi­function steering wheel.

MAN AttentionGuard.
MAN AttentionGuard detects signs of reduced driver alertness at an early stage and warns the driveraccordingly. A second­generation (or higher) Lane Guard System isrequired for this system to work.The MAN AttentionGuard is a key factor in preventing the driver from accidentally leaving the lane onmonotonous stretches of road – one of thetypical causes of accidents. The MAN AttentionGuard alsoworks during driving at night.

Emergency Stopping Signal (ESS)
Instead of the brake lights simply coming on, the Emergency Stopping Signal (ESS) warns the trafficbehind of emergency braking using the hazard lights. These flash faster to alert the traffic behind tothe emergency. Once the vehicle is stationary, the hazard lights are automatically activated to preventrear­end collisions. The ESS therefore helps to enhance road safety.

Cornering light
The cornering light supplements the normal low­beam headlights at speeds of up to 40 km/h. It isac­tivated when the driver operates the indicator or – on vehicles fitted with ESP – when the steering wheelis turned far enough. This improves visibility in the dark and in foggy conditions, while providing additio­nal lighting on the side of the vehicle to prevent injuring persons or causing damage when cornering.

LED daytime driving lights
Twin headlights with integrated LED daytime driving lights (in compliance with the requirements ofDirectiveECE R­87) make the MAN TGX easier to see during the day compared to daytime drivinglights with H7 lamps, thereby improving active safety. The lights are turned on and off automaticallywith the ignition and are dimmed to the maximum permitted luminance if other lights such as the low­beam headlights or indicators are switched on – not however if only the headlight flasher is actuated.The high level of light intensity of the long­lasting LED daytime driving lights give the vehicle a modernlook.

Xenon light for better vision
The combination of Xenon light and free­form reflectors casts a whole new light on the road. The lumi­nance of the long­lasting Xenon lamps results in a wide stretch of road being illuminated. Illuminationin this area is bright and homogeneous without dazzling oncoming traffic.

Automatic low-beam headlights and automatic wiper system with sensors
The automatic low­beam headlights with light sensors activate and deactivate the front, side andrear lights as needed. At dawn and at dusk, tunnels and bridges are detected and the lighting isregulated accordingly. The automatic wipers with rain sensor are activated as soon as visibility isaffected by water or dirt. The optimum wiper speed is then set automatically depending on thesituation. The control system can detect all kinds of visibility conditions such as rain, splashes, streaksor dirt.

LED rear lights
With tail lights in an LED design, burnt­out lightbulbs and the associated compromised safety andmaintenance costs can be avoided. LED lights have a longer service life with lower energy consump­tion than conventional lightbulbs.

Manoeuvring light
A manoeuvring light is available as an option to assist night­time manoeuvring and cornering. Theilluminated area coincides with the field of vision of the ramp mirror. This enables the driver to safelyrecognise the condition and edge of the road and any obstacles in the dark. Active safety duringmanoeuvring is improved.

Turning camera
Early recognition of critical situations on the difficult­to­view right side of the vehicle is essential whenturning or manoeuvring.A camera on MAN trucks extends the visible area to the blind spot. Themonitoris in the field of vision when looking to the right in the mirror and helps the driver to betterviewthe area next to the vehicle. It recognises whether,for example, cyclists or smaller vehicles are locat­ed directly next to the driver’s cab and, when manoeuvring, obstacles stand out better. The systemis activated automatically whenever the right­hand indicator is switched on. This equipment can beordered ex works.
