[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Dae-yeol] MAN Truck & Bus Korea, the Korean subsidiary of MAN Truck & Bus Group, unveiled completely redesigned dump trucks and large cargo trucks on the 14th for the first time in 20 years. The new MAN TGS model includes 3 models of 2 types of dump trucks categorized by horsepower, and 10 models of 6 types of large cargo trucks differentiated by engine, cab size, and horsepower.


With the additional launch of the new TGS model, the full lineup of the new MAN TG series has been completed domestically. The company stated that this series offers a customized driving space with ergonomic design and has received favorable reviews for improving fuel efficiency by up to 4% compared to previous models.


The dump trucks are equipped with the D26 engine supporting Euro 6D and a retarder optimized for the driving habits of Korean drivers, enhancing driving performance. The newly applied NN cab allows for a mist heater, increasing convenience. Durability has been reinforced not only for the bumper, axle, and lamp covers but also for the cargo bed. Some models are equipped with adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning system, vehicle stability control, and anti-slip devices.



The cargo trucks feature cabs that drivers can select based on size and purpose according to customer needs. Customers can also choose horsepower and wheelbase depending on their work, resulting in 10 models across 6 types available for selection. The EfficientCruise3 function determines a driving style optimized for fuel efficiency based on GPS data and terrain. Thomas H?mmerich, President of MAN Truck & Bus Korea, said, "By actively reflecting the voices from Korean sites, the newly launched TGS dump trucks and large cargo trucks will serve as assistants to help drivers operate more conveniently and safely."
