Perhaps we will start with an overview of the four basic types of MAN. Instead of the TGA there is the TGX and the TGS. In the TGX there are three engine ranges from 9 to 11.4 to 15.2 litres, 243 kW (330 hp) to 472 kW (640 hp), torques from 1600 to 3000 Nm. The TGS doesn't have the most powerful engine series, so that 'only' an output of up to 316 kW (430 hp) and 2600 Nm torque is possible.

Remains the TGM with a displacement of 6.9 litres and 184 kW (250 PS) to 235 kW (320 PS). The TGL is the smallest with 4.6 liters of engine displacement from 118 kW (160 hp) to 162 kW (220 hp). The smaller engine of the TGM with 6.9 litres is also possible here. All four types have been extensively used for improvements. These include an 8 percent reduction in fuel consumption for the most powerful model, which has also been certified by TÜV. However, a further 30 percent reduction in CO₂ by 2025 and a further 30 percent by 2030 lie ahead.

But it was about more improvements. According to their own statements, they presented partial solutions to a total of 700 drivers, e.g. at off-motorway service areas, and gathered feedback from 300 customers from 16 countries. The results of more than 40,000 'personal customer surveys' have been incorporated. The manufacturer speaks of 12 million working hours and 4 million test kilometres. 100 million euros had been invested in the body shop and 85 million in improvements to the paint shop only in Munich.

The four series cover transport tasks from 7.5 to 41 tons, in the heavy-duty range even up to 250 tons. For this purpose alone, 8 different cabs are offered, the largest without engine tunnel with standing heights of up to 1.87 m and 2.07 m. In the TGL they are available with only 2.24 m width outside and 1.62 m length. The cockpit is even more oriented towards the driver's seat. Controls are closer, those for reading purposes only are arranged a little further away.

Adjustments of the transmission is now possible with a steering column switch on the right-hand side of the steering wheel combined with operation of the permanent brake. A parking brake can 'under certain circumstances also be automatic'. There are keys that can be assigned with self-selectable functions. In addition to the colour display in the middle with a size of 12.3 inches, the display between speedometer and rev counter has a greater part of preparing information.

Touchpad operation is only available in the vicinity of the turn-push actuator with wrist rest next to the driver's seat. Stricter than probably in a passanger car, attention is paid to ensure that the view is taken as little off the road as possible and if so, only at a small angle. A belt height adjustment is now integrated into the air-sprung seats. Functions can even be selected from the bed via a cable-connected colour display.

Assistance is particularly important for trucks, e.g. when turning off. Up to 30 km/h, radar monitors the passenger side. A similar system also ensures lane changes and warns via LEDs in the A-pillars. The system detects unintentional lane departure if the turn signal is not set. Even steering wheel intervention is possible here. The adaptive cruise control functions until the vehicle comes to a standstill and, if the vehicle stops briefly, it can even be restarted automatically.
