Payload advantage

MAN trucks score points in the highly competitive logistics business in terms of payload and transport efficiency.

The payload-optimised MAN trucks for distribution transport

We consistently implement lightweight design and weight-reduced vehicle components, allowing you to load more and get the most out of every tour. The lowest possible unladen weight of the trucks leads to increased payload, resulting in additional profit for your transport business.

The driveline contributes to a higher payload and maximum transport efficiency as well: The compact, yet powerful engines are significantly lighter than their predecessors.

Great in an urban setting

Heavy inner-city traffic, narrow access roads and lots of different road users – every delivery driver knows the distribution transport challenges. The practical features of our trucks facilitate your work.

Ample field of vision

Free vision for keeping the overview

Since the mirror arms are now positioned in the area around the A-pillar, the mirrors of our MAN distribution trucks are located further to the rear. This positioning not only improves aerodynamics, but also enhances the direct field of vision to the front and to the sides. In addition, the field of vision is expanded by the lowered instrument panel in the cockpit. Hence you can keep an eye on what is happening in front and on the left and right sides of your vehicle.

Control panel in the driver’s door

Important vehicle functions can be operated via the MAN EasyControl panel on the inside of the driver’s door. For example, you can switch the loading area lighting on and off or release the liftgate control even after getting off the vehicle. Up to four keys can be either pre-configured ex works or they can be assigned to suit your individual needs.

Ergonomic access

Anyone frequently getting on and off a delivery vehicle appreciates a safe and comfortable access.

Generous door opening angle

A door opening angle of 90° and stair-like wide steps ensure easy access. The individual steps are equipped with non-slip grating. Additional safety is provided by the optional entry lighting, providing perfect illumination for the steps even in darkness.

Thanks to the considerable adjustment range of the steering wheel, the driver’s seat in the cab is easily accessible: In park position, the steering wheel can be pushed forward into a horizontal position, which significantly increases the space between the seat edge and the steering wheel. Due to its seat contour, which was developed in extensive driver tests, the premium seat offers a perfect and comfortable seating position.

Thanks to a sophisticated storage concept, driver and co-driver have practical storage space at their disposal. Hand scanners and documents are quickly at hand when getting off the car, and everything is safely stowed away during the journey.
