The MAN TGX EVOLION
MAN is celebrating its current TG series with a very special vehicle. The Trucknology Generation is roaring into the next phase with the MAN TGX EVOLION.
The MAN TGX Red Lion Edition and the MAN LION Pro Edition have now been followed by another MAN which elicits a strong emotional response and which features a design that is slightly different to what is customary at MAN: the MAN TGX EVOLION.
“We wanted to be a bit less standard and move a little more outside the box,” said Pawel Lukasiewicz from the Product Marketing Truck department at MAN Truck & Bus Deutschland GmbH, describing the idea of taking a new path with the MAN EVOLION. “For the first time we’ve ventured towards a design which our body doesn’t normally lend itself to. We put in lines with a racing feel; these make the design very interesting and make it appear sporty while still staying true to the vehicle.”
The design features wraps on the sides and was created with a nod towards motorsports; the stripes which surround the headlights impart additional dynamism to the truck and tie in the front as well.

20,000th MAN TGE rolls off the production line
Production milestone with an eTGE: the 20,000th MAN TGE was a purely electrically driven vehicle.
A brief look back: the MAN TGE celebrated its launch at the IAA Commercial Vehicles in 2016. It marked MAN's entry into the van segment and made MAN Truck & Bus a full-range supplier of commercial vehicles from 3 to 44 tonnes. TGE production was started in a state-of-the-art van plant in Września near Poznań, Poland in April 2017. The vehicle was launched onto the market in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Netherlands two months later. Now, just two years later, the MAN TGE is available in over 30 countries and 20,000 vehicles have been produced. A remarkable achievement for all involved.
Martin Imhoff, head of van product marketing at MAN Truck & Bus, had this to say about the production milestone: “For the team at MAN and in production in Września, this is a great delight and a huge success. We reached this production milestone considerably earlier than even we expected. This shows, on the one hand, just how well the TGE and MAN's service portfolio have been received in the market and, on the other hand, how highly motivated our specialist, highly trained van salespersons are when they advise our customers.” In addition, Imhoff pointed out the fact that the TGE sales team in Europe will be expanded by around 100 salespersons by the end of the year – up to over 600. Further milestones appear promising in the near future.
Renault Trucks to double range T High production
Following its UK launch in June 2017, the Range T High has been enthusiastically received by operators and drivers who appreciate its fully-flat floor and spacious, comfortable and well-appointed working and living areas. Exceptionally strong demand for the right hand drive model has prompted the increase in production at Renault Trucks Bourg-en-Bresse plant in Lyon.
James Charnock, Commercial Trucks and Services Director, Renault Trucks, comments: “We are delighted by the response to the Range T High since its launch. We have a very strong order booked filled to the end of the year so this increase in production capacity will enable us to offer more T Highs to more customers in a shorter time. “
He continues: “This truck offers the perfect work life balance, effortlessly meeting the needs of those who want a home-from-home working environment, a truck which offers a great image for their business yet still provides outstanding operational efficiency.”
The T High has been welcomed by operators in the UK and Ireland, both by operators looking for a striking new vehicle for their fleets, and those who recognise that the T High’s features and comfort will help them to attract and retain the best drivers.
James Charnock concludes: “Drivers love the generous working, living and sleeping environment, which helps to increase satisfaction and productivity. Enhanced residual values also underpin the T High’s excellent total cost of ownership performance, so it makes real commercial sense for long-haul operators.”
Renault Trucks unveils exclusive Master Red Edition
Delivering a bold new look, new engines, new interior and new driver-assistance systems, the 2019 Renault Trucks Master arrives in the UK with an exclusive launch version, the Master Red EDITION, offered throughout the Renault Trucks Master diesel and electric range. Featuring enhanced levels of standard specification, the new Renault Trucks Master is available to order through the Renault Trucks UK and Ireland dealer network.
A striking new frontage and completely revamped interior, redesigned dashboard and steering wheel, together with functional, ergonomic storage spaces will appeal to both drivers and operators alike. The new Renault Trucks Master also offers new driver-assistance systems, including active braking, side wind assist, permanent rear view, blind spot warning and front and rear parking assistance.
It features six new Euro 6d-temp and Euro VI diesel engines, from 130 hp to 180 hp/400 Nm, together with an electric 57kW engine. All diesel engines are fitted with Twin-Turbo technology, which combines low-end torque with high-power for optimal driving. Fuel consumption is therefore reduced up to 1L/100 km and CO2 emissions remain under control.
