Driver fit to the max

Excellent driver fit in heavy duty transport and special applications

At a glance

  • Ergonomic cab
    Centrally arranged non-slip step unit, back-friendly seats – the MAN TGS lets drivers forget even the roughest terrain.
  • Easy handling on any terrain
    The MAN SmartSelect push/turn control knob, the MAN EasyControl door buttons and the digital MAN OptiView mirror replacement system make difficult tasks easier.
  • Plenty of room for relaxation
    When the co-driver’s seat turns into a side table and there suddenly is extra space all around, brakes become even more restful.

The MAN cabs offer high-level comfort.

Comfort starts at the door

Finally a workplace which entirely shapes around the driver – and not the other way around.

Ergonomic entry into the MAN TGS

A new driving pleasure experience

The entry of the MAN TGS is comfortably positioned in the centre of the doorway. The steps are equipped with non-slip grating and are fit for any off-road application. The bottom step is equipped with an elastic mount that allows for oscillating movements and thus prevents damage.

For that extra bit of freedom of movement, the steering wheel position can be individually adjusted and pushed forward completely into a horizontal position when at standstill.

Small tool, big impact

Our intelligent systems take the strain off the driver and improve convenience and safety.

Language recognition via driver card

Language recognition via driver card

Convenient time savings: With automatic language recognition via driver card, which can be activated via MAN Now, the truck automatically switches all displays to the driver's language when the card is inserted. This reduces the time it takes to start off if there are frequent driver changes. There are 28 languages available in total.

/
Alcohol Interlock capability

Alcohol Interlock capability

Traffic accidents under the influence of alcohol are all the more unfortunate, because they absolutely can be avoided. Alcohol Interlock capability enables a test device to be retrofitted to determine the alcohol level in the driver’s breath. This electronically prevents the engine from starting until the driver is capable of driving again.

/
Tyre pressure control system with temperature display

Tyre pressure control system with temperature display

Early warning of potential damage: Thanks to sensor monitoring, the system immediately detects when the air pressure is not right or the tyres overheat and warns the driver of this. This can help the driver to avoid tyre blow-outs and fires and to increase the operating and driving safety.

/
Reversing Motion System

Reversing Motion System

Good overall view when reversing and manoeuvring: The standard camera at the rear of the solo truck helps you to see what is happening behind you on the cockpit display. This enables people or objects to be detected and provides a full view of trailers and semitrailers for coupling or hitching.

/
Sensor-enhanced fifth-wheel coupling

Sensor-enhanced fifth-wheel coupling

Coupling made more convenient: Three sensors mounted on the fifth-wheel coupling enable drivers to monitor the hitching and unhitching process from the comfort of their workplace. The connection status is shown in the display, making coupling processes significantly easier for the driver and preventing damage due to incorrect hitching and unhitching.

/
Traffic sign recognition

Traffic sign recognition

Does the 60 km/h limit from the roadworks still apply? To help the driver maintain an overview among a sea of road signs, traffic sign recognition detects the signage on the road ahead of the truck via a new video camera on the windshield and shows the currently applicable requirements in the display. If the driver exceeds the permitted speed limit, for example, a warning reminds them of the applicable rules.

/
Direct access to central assistance systems operating menu

Direct access to central assistance systems operating menu

Improved ease of use: The central operating menu for all assistance systems in the truck is now available at the push of a button. The intuitive operation and menu navigation means it is now significantly easier to configure assistance systems, particularly if there are frequent driver changes.

Smart elements, easy operation

MAN SmartSelect, MAN EasyControl, MAN OptiView and pneumatic suspension control: For simple and efficient work processes – even for demanding tasks.

The digital mirror replacement system provides the driver with the best possible overview: by offering an increased direct field of vision and by adapting the digital mirror views to the driving situation.

MAN OptiView

Driving manoeuvres on uneven, soft surfaces. Or precise shunting between construction machinery, crane jibs and stacks of material. Whether construction site or off-road terrain – the precise driving performance of your MAN TGS is not its only asset. The driver also needs an overall view of the route of his truck at all times – both in general and in detail.

Our digital mirror replacement system offers both features and performs much better than conventional external mirrors: The coverage of the vehicle surroundings by the exterior cameras reduces the area previously invisible on the driver’s and co-driver’s side. When shunting and turning, the driver is also provided with expanded display views. Zoom into sections to manoeuvre your vehicle precisely through bottlenecks. With OptiView , the direct view through the side windows is no longer obstructed by mirror arms.

MAN SmartSelect push/turn control knob in the TGS

MAN SmartSelect

The innovative MAN SmartSelect push/turn control knob provides safe operation of the multimedia system inside the cockpit – even with a rocking cab. The comfortable thumb-ball support ensures an ergonomic hand position and the integrated touchpad with zoom function allows for easy input even on demanding terrain.

Large rotating ring for MAN SmartSelect

The driver can access the main menu via the large bottom rotating ring.

Small rotating ring for MAN SmartSelect in the TGS

The driver can navigate through sub-menus and select individual elements via the small rotating ring.

Touchpad of the MAN SmartSelect

The touchpad reacts to numbers or letters traced onto it with the finger and makes navigating through lists even easier.

Four-button keypad for MAN EasyControl in the driver’s door

MAN EasyControl

To avoid having to needlessly spend time and energy getting on and off the vehicle, we have developed MAN EasyControl. Inside the driver's door, there are four control panels which can be easily identified visually and by touch and be comfortably reached from the outside. Depending on the equipment, they are pre-programmed with the most important functions, such as tipping, spotlight control, hazard warning system or PTO, or they can be individually programmed in some cases.

Remote operation of air suspension control

New air suspension control

Rear axles with air suspension have long been a standard in long-haul transport. However, the possibilities and benefits of air suspension are now increasingly being used in various other segments. The new electronically controlled VASC (Vehicle Air Suspension Control) is very much part of this trend and now offers an improved and extended range of functions: one example of this is the relievable axle which primarily improves manoeuvrability and helps to reduce wear.

The air suspension control boasts impressive stats, with up to 50% faster lifting and lowering times, as well as a high level of operating convenience. This function not only enables the truck's air suspension to be set remotely or via the multi-function steering wheel, but also that of the trailer/semitrailer.
