Swindon-based MAN Truck & Bus UK is introducing the new GX 4x2 eTruck which it says will revolutionise freight transport through decarbonisation.
Originally launched in 2022, at the International IAA Show in Hannover, the MAN eTGX eTruck is now in production, available for customers to order and ready to hit the UK roads.
Marking a historic milestone in the decarbonisation of freight transport, that delivers lower emissions and a smooth drive. Post going on sale in 2023, the latest eTruck aquired over 700 initial orders over a three month span.
Delivering daily ranges of up to 800 kilometres, with the ability to specify the number of batteries installed within the vehicle, the new MAN eTGX is described a competition for conventional tractors when it comes to long-distance transport.
With a charging capacity of up to 750 kW the MAN eTGX tractor provides the perfect balance for operators.
At the IFAT 2024 Show, held in Munich in mid-May, MAN Truck & Bus premiered the New eTGX and eTGS rigid range and in doing so significantly expanded the eTruck portfolio for individual customers.
The number of configurable MAN eTruck variants has risen to over one million thus ensuring the new chassis versions of the eTGX and eTGS can be highly customised with a variety of wheelbases, cab versions, engine performance classes, battery combinations, charging connection positions and numerous other industry-typical features:
- Daily ranges up to 800 km
- High charging power with MCS (750 kW) and CCS (375 kW) standards with variable positioning of the CCS charging port
- Battery technology developed by MAN specifically for commercial vehicles, made in Germany
- Modularly positionable battery packs for optimum deployment flexibility and buildability
- Modular battery concept offers up to 2.4 tons of payload variance depending on transport task and range requirements
- Numerous tractor and chassis variants, also with very short wheelbases from 3,750 mm for all common trailer and body combinations
- MAN eMobility Consulting from fleet consulting to charging infrastructure development to digital tools for deployment analysis and route planning based on many years of expertise with the eBus and the eVan
