More than an ordinary exterior mirror: Our digital mirror replacement system adapts to the driving situation.
With their extended mirror views, the digital exterior mirrors support the driver in critical driving situations. The problem with obstructed visibility caused by the mirror arms has now been solved.
With the truck through the city: This is sometimes a high-precision task, where a driver needs a safe view of the traffic and the surroundings of his vehicle at all times. MAN OptiView guarantees an optimal overview. Our digital mirror replacement system performs much better than ordinary exterior mirrors.
Thanks to the exterior cameras, the blind spot on the driver’s and co-driver’s side is reduced to a minimum. And since the mirror arms are dispensed with, there are no more restrictions of the direct field of vision. For more demanding driving manoeuvres such as shunting, lane changes and turning, the system offers extended views with zoom factor, thus offering a comprehensive view of the traffic situation down to the last detail.
Better overview while driving, more safety for everyone: With our intelligent assistance systems, drivers can avoid dangerous situations.
Caution – risk of accident! Knowing for sure whether the road is really clear is essential when turning. But the co-driver’s side of a truck in particular is difficult to check from the driver’s workplace. That’s why our turn assist keeps an eye on your MAN from the outside instead from the inside: Two radar sensors – placed on the outside of the co-driver’s side – detect everything within a radius of almost 180° in the vicinity of the vehicle: Pedestrians, cyclists, obstacles.
If the road is not clear, the system warns the driver via LED lights on the A-pillar using three stages: “Object detected in warning area”, “Collision possible if journey is continued” and “Driver alert: Immediate intervention required!”
Every lane change requires the utmost attention. Our Lane Change Assist reassures drivers that they will not fail to see any of the other road users in the often busy traffic around them: Radar sensors monitor the lanes to the left and right of the vehicle up to 30 metres ahead and 80 metres to the rear. If the sensors detect a hazardous situation when changing lanes, the system warns the driver early on via LEDs on the A-pillars. The lane change support is active from a speed of 50 km/h (31 mph) onwards.
Staircase-like anti-slip steps and a door opening angle of 89° ensure comfort at every step.
Winding your way through narrow alleys is part of the job. Doing the same whilst getting on and off the vehicle no longer is. The new MAN TGM & MAN TGL ensure ergonomic entry and exit for drivers:
The steering wheel is now more flexible than ever: When at standstill, it can be completely folded forward into a horizontal position. Whilst driving, even a steep steering wheel angle like in a passenger car is possible. Full comfort in next to no time.
With the MAN TGM & MAN TGL, everything is clearly arranged, both externally and internally.
Displays at convenient reading height, easy to reach control elements – both areas separated from one another, with each being arranged in logical groups.
In order to support the driver even in heavy traffic, the cockpit and the instrument panel in the MAN TGM & MAN TGL have been lowered to increase the field of vision to the front and to the side of the cab.
The casing of the exterior mirror has been optimised with a streamlined design and moved further to the back. The latter ensures an enhanced field of vision and a significantly better direct view of the A-pillar area.
The electric parking brake is located on the right-hand side next to the main display. It can be operated manually but is also engaged automatically when the vehicle is parked and releases again automatically when the vehicle moves off.
Conveniently located on the right-hand stalk switch, the semi-automatic MAN TipMatic gear shift control is used to select driving programmes and gears.
