After just over two hours of driving, Grünig and Vlaskamp arrived in Nuremberg with plenty of remaining range, where a forklift truck was able to unload the freight they had brought with them. “E-mobility works - even in trucks,” Grünig summarized his experience. He gained further insights into the topic and MAN's activities during a subsequent tour of the battery production facility in Nuremberg. A total of 350 new jobs and intelligently interlinked assembly and logistics facilities for up to 100,000 batteries “Made in Germany” per year are being created on a total area of 16,000 square meters.
For the eTGX, however, the working day did not end there: For the return journey from Nuremberg to Munich, IToY jury president Griffini got behind the wheel and drove back to the starting point together with Rainer Miksch, Head of Road Testing at MAN - quietly and in a climate-friendly manner. On the road with the future.
