MAN electric trucks: Welcome to the era of eTrucks

At just 3,750 mm, the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS have the shortest wheelbases among semitrailer tractors on the market – while offering a battery capacity of up to 480 kWh and a high fifth-wheel coupling load. This means that you can combine your eTruck with ISO or special trailers without exceeding the total truck length of 16.50 m. We also have chassis with a wheelbase of 3,750 mm to 5,950 mm – and PTOs are also available.

What really sets the MAN eTGL apart is its compact cab – there is just one step, which means you can climb in and out safely in busy traffic. At 4,500 mm, the wheelbase is designed for optimum manoeuvrability and good weight distribution. In addition, the eTruck boasts a low top edge of frame due to its 17.5-inch tyres.

Low design, high efficiency: With a minimum height of 953 mm, the MAN ultra semitrailer tractor is ideal for semitrailers with an internal height of 3,000 mm and a volume of up to 100 m³. This makes it perfect for just-in-time/just-in-sequence deliveries in the automotive sector, where the maximum use of space is particularly important.

Bespoke battery configuration: Thanks to our intelligent battery box, you can choose between three to six battery packs (four to six for semitrailer tractors) for the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS depending on your individual requirements and specification. Whether you need a greater payload/fifth-wheel coupling load while keeping the procurement costs to a minimum or a higher range, you are in complete control. What’s more, body manufacturers have been included in the development process right from the outset. As a result, aspects such as gaps in the frame for hydraulic supports for front crane applications were considered from an early stage. The MAN eTGL comes with two battery packs as standard.

MAN identified battery development as the key to e-mobility and developed cellular chemistry optimised specifically for commercial vehicle applications. Even battery production remains in-house: The batteries are produced at our MAN site in Nuremberg – meaning you benefit from the Made in Germany quality seal and state-of-the-art battery technology specifically for commercial vehicles with real-world ranges. With a forecasted effective useful life of up to 1.6 million kilometres or up to 13 years (depending on the type of use), the batteries are also extremely long-lasting.

Charge your MAN eTruck in no time: The Combined Charging System (CCS) provides a maximum charging capacity of 375 kW for the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS, or 250 kW for the MAN eTGL, keeping charging times to a minimum. It’s even quicker for the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS with Megawatt Charging System (MCS), which boasts an output of up to 750 kW. On top of this, the four possible charging positions on the vehicle make your life even easier – in line with our motto of ‘Simplifying business’.

Start your career in e-mobility easily, predictably and successfully – with our comprehensive 360° e-mobility consulting service.

Our flexible MAN eMobility service products ensure long-term planning security: Benefit, for example, from a three-year driveline warranty, service contracts including tyre service or individual purchase warranties. This service offering is complemented by our proven MAN Mobile24 support. In addition, a versatile digital package is included as standard in the new MAN eTGX and eTGS models free of charge for as little as five years.

The actual range of the eTruck varies depending on the specific operating conditions. Under good operating conditions, the following non-stop ranges are possible without intermediate charging.

• For a 4x2 standard semitrailer tractor with 6 batteries: up to 570 km^{[eTrucks-range]}
• For a 4x2 chassis box body with 6 batteries: up to 820 km^{[eTrucks-range]}
• For the 6x2 chassis swap body with 7 batteries: up to 830 km^{[eTrucks-range]} without trailer / 600 km^{[eTrucks-range]} with trailer

The practical MAN eTGL, on the other hand, can cover up to 310 kilometres^{[genaue-reichweite]} a day on average  with a potential battery capacity of up to 160  kWh.

The new MAN eTruck generation will feature the MAN eTGX, MAN eTGS and MAN eTGL models. Depending on the intended use, you can chose different cabs and primary applications for the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS lines – from refrigerated bodies and platform bodies with loading cranes right through to ultra semitrailers, nearly all known applications can be electrified with the MAN eTrucks. The MAN eTGL is available with a dry-freight box body with or without liftgate depending on your requirements.

There are several options for charging an electric truck. With the Combined Charging System (CCS), you can charge the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS with up to 375 kW and the MAN eTGL with up to 250 kW. There’s also the Megawatt Charging System (MCS), which is connected to the electric truck’s cooling system and supplies up to 750 kW for the MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS.

The consumption of a MAN electric truck depends on various factors, such as weather, temperature, payload, topography of the route and type of road (country road, motorway, urban).

With a 480 kWh battery and a charging break of approx. 45 minutes, a MAN eTruck can travel 600 to 800 kilometres per day.
