Supported by an array of customer-tailored, integrated, and business-focused aftersales products, including bespoke, MAN Digital Services and MAN Financial Services, MAN Trucks and Vans set benchmarks for the highest levels of efficiency, reliability, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability.

Jan Kohlmeier, Managing Director, MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd, said: “Following the launch of our eTGX at RTX 2025, MAN Truck & Bus now offers customers a complete battery-electric vehicle (BEV) portfolio, ranging from the 12-tonne eTGL, which we are showcasing at this year's fair, through to the 16-tonne eTGM, now available to order, and a broad line-up of eTGX and eTGS models covering the full spectrum of zero-emission transport applications.”

“This represents a strong signal and a clear message: MAN Truck & Bus is ready to support the transformation to zero-emission transport.”

Jan added, “At the same time, we are demonstrating how customers can further improve efficiency within our diesel portfolio. Our EfficientLine+ package offers fuel savings of up to eight percent, which can translate into annual fuel cost reductions of up to £6,600 GBP, depending on operating conditions and mileage.”

“No trade fair would be complete without a true hero truck. Our Eclipse Edition combines premium in-cab comfort with an elegant, sporty design and offers customers an exclusive trip for two to the MAN birthplace in Munich.

“We are also showcasing a range of construction vehicles, reflecting customer interest in MAN's expertise and capabilities within the construction segment.”

“For those with inquisitive minds and questions, our expert team, including our UK eMobility consultants, will be on hand to guide customers as they prepare for this new era of sustainability and decarbonisation.”

MAN eTGL 12.285 4x2 BL CH Electric Rigid

Showcased for the first time in the UK, in Right Hand Drive (RHD) configuration and after making its World Premiere at Solutrans (Lyon) in 2025, new MAN eTGL rounds off MAN's electric truck portfolio, spanning 12 to 44 tonnes.

With a permissible gross weight of 12 tonnes and a chassis payload of up to 6.6 tonnes (depending on the body), the MAN eTGL provides significant reserves for a wide range of applications.  

With a usable battery capacity of 160 kWh, the MAN eTGL offers a range of up to 310 kilometres without intermediate charging, depending on use – more than sufficient for typical daily deliveries in urban and regional distribution transport. Innovative fast-charging technology can recharge the batteries from 10 to 80 percent in around 35 minutes. This makes optimal use of break and unloading times and increases the daily range up to 600 kilometres. 

Using a permanently excited synchronous motor with power outputs of 210 kW (285 PS) and 800 Nm, connected to a 2 Speed MAN TipMatic® automated Transmission and a central drive unit with rear wheel drive, this eTGL comes fitted with 2 x 80 kWh batteries. Charging Connection is via the CCS connector on the vehicle's front left-hand side.  

To help maximise both payload and available chassis space, this 4.2 metre wheelbase eTGL is fitted with a compact 2.24 metre wide CC Day cab. Finished in Arctic Blue Metallic, it includes creature comforts such as the MAN Professional Navigation Media System with a 12.3” display, Smartphone integration, Multifunction steering wheel, Comfort driver's seat with air suspension, lumbar support, and shoulder adjustment, and Climatronic air conditioning.

Driver Assistance Systems include Cruise Control, Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS), Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, Lane Change Support, Turn Assist, Front Detection and a Reversing Motion System.

Front and rear axle capacities are 4700 kg and 8700 kg, respectively.

MAN TGX 26.480 6x2/2 BL SA EfficientLine+ Midlift Tractor – a vehicle specified to help aid efficiency

Debuting in the UK at RTX 2026 is the new MAN TGX EfficientLine+ tractor, a vehicle designed to help operators maximise their fleet efficiency.

MAN EfficientLine+ (often associated with the flagship TGX series) is a factory-configured, fuel-saving package specifically designed to reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for long-haul transport. The EfficientLine+ concept delivers significant diesel savings through optimised aerodynamics, reduced vehicle weight, and smart software.

In a comparison, the TGX 26.480 6x2/2 BL SA EfficientLine+ Midlift Tractor has shown up to 8 percent fuel savings compared with a standard TGX 26.480 6x2/2 BL SA, which can translate into annual fuel cost reductions of up to £6,600 GBP, based on 150,000 km per year.

The EfficientLine+ draws on a package of factory options, all proven to improve efficiency and reduce operating costs. These features include MAN OptiView mirror replacement, an energy-saving compressor, top-grade A-label tyres, a new Aero front bumper, and a speed limiter set to 85 km/h.

MAN OptiView not only improves the driver's view of the surrounding area but also improves the vehicle's aerodynamic performance by reducing frontal drag, therefore increasing fuel efficiency.

The MAN Energy-saving compressor is designed to supply the vehicle with compressed air only when the system pressure falls below a specific threshold. When the reservoir is full, it switches to idle mode, thereby reducing engine load and unnecessary energy consumption.

A-label tyres are fitted to all axles of the MAN TGX EfficientLine+. Since 2012, all EU tyres have received a rating based on three points of criteria – wet grip performance, fuel efficiency, and external noise. This rating measures how much energy is required to keep the tire moving. An "A" rating tyre is proven to use less fuel and produce fewer emissions.

MANs Aero front bumper is designed to improve airflow from the front of the vehicle when traveling at higher speeds on motorways and dual carriageways, thereby reducing drag, enhancing aerodynamics, and further increasing fuel efficiency. The new Aero front bumper, featuring a 50 mm extension, sees changes to the front grille and bumper, a new intake shape, and a deeper, more rounded design.

Speed limiter set to 85 km/h. Having a vehicle's speed limiter set to a maximum of 85 km/h (53 mph) is known to help save fuel and therefore reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

This TGX 26.480 6x2/2 EfficientLine+ Midlift Tractor is powered by MAN's D26 12.4 litre, 6 cylinder, Euro VI OBD-E engine, which delivers 480 PS (353 kW) and 2450 Nm, and is mounted to a 12 Speed MAN TipMatic® automated transmission.

Sitting atop the 2600 mm wheelbase chassis is a GM Medium roof sleeper cab painted in MAN Titanium Silver. Once behind the wheel, the driver is greeted by MAN's Professional Navigation Media System with a 12.3” display, an Advanced sound system with a subwoofer, MAN SmartSelect infotainment control with a touchpad and direct-access buttons, and Smartphone integration.

Making the miles fly by, the driver sits relaxed in a Comfort driver's seat with air suspension, lumbar support, and shoulder adjustment, a Multifunction leather steering wheel, MAN EasyControl, Climatronic air conditioning, a fully retractable under-bunk fridge, and, to maximise space for single occupancy, a single bunk featuring a 110 mm pocket-sprung mattress.

To ensure a safe journey for both the driver and other third-party road users, this vehicle is equipped with an array of driver assistance systems, including Cruise control, MAN EfficientCruise with PredictiveDrive, Turn Assist, Front Detection, Traffic Sign Recognition, Reversing Motion System, and MANs Distance Warning System.

Plated at 44 tonnes GVW, the front, mid, and rear axle capacities are 8000 kg, 7100 kg, and 11500 kg, respectively.
