MAN GUIDE 101
TGE basics
With its new TGE, MAN is joining the world of transporters for the first time. What started in the past at 7.5 tons, now begins at maximum permissible weight of 3.0 tons. Using the new TGE, MAN transfers the usually customer-focussed truck business to the category of delivery trucks. The TGE from MAN is a light commercial vehicle which - flanked by its big brothers - inspires users with enthusiasm who have performed professional work with heavy trucks for a long time. Excellent TGE sales consultants will always provide a customized solution.
MAN as a full-range offerer
up to 18.4 cubic metres of loading space
engines from 75 kW to 130 kW
standard safety by emergency brake assistants
service and use around the clock
For example, MAN identifies the target groups in the logistic and construction area. Also, sectoral requirements from handicraft and passenger transportation businesses can be future applications of the light “truck” from the MAN Truck & Bus company. All applications have the following in common: Thanks to the lowest cW-value of 0.33 and the lowest consumption of its class as well as the lowest maintenance and repair costs, the best Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the new MAN TGE is inspiring.
In addition to the panel van and the glazed estate car, the chassis with their single-compartment and twincompartment cabs increase the offer of body types. Two wheelbases, three roof heights and three vehicle lengths are options. Always available: the loading space illuminated by LED lamps.
Also, there are lots of drive types. Depending on the maximum permissible gross weight, front-wheel or rear-wheel and all-wheel drives are possible, optionally coupled with a 6-speed manual gearbox or an 8-speed automatic transmission. 2.0L engines with 75 kW / 102 HP, 90 kW / 122 HP, 103 kW / 140 HP, and 130 kW / 177 HP are available.
With its standard emergency brake assist (EBA), MAN considerably contributes to road-traffic safety. To this effect, distance sensors review critical distances to the vehicle in the front, helping reduce the stopping distance. In addition, the integrated city emergency brake function automatically decelerates the vehicle at low speeds and thus reduces one of the most frequent causes of accidents. The adaptive cruise control system provides great convenience on long highway distances. The fatigue detection system and the multi-collision brake have been designed for the safety of everybody.

VEHICLE BODY
Body structure
The body of the MAN TGE has been completely redesigned. In addition to the modular design, the developers
focused on optimizing weight and aerodynamics as well as crash safety.
These goals were achieved, among other things, by the use of higheststrength hot-formed steels. Compared to conventional steels, these are considerably stronger at a similar weight and thus make the MAN TGE lighter and safer.

Floor structure
The floor structure of the MAN TGE is the same for all variants in the vehicle front end area. At the rear end, however, there are significant differences regarding the floor panel, longitudinal members, wheel housings and the corresponding connecting parts as well
as reinforcements. Their configuration and design are determined by the following factors:

The 2.0 l turbo diesel engines
In the MAN TGE, only 2.0-litre turbo diesel engines from the MDBnutz modular diesel construction kit are used. The use of a uniform engine geometry with many identical parts creates high synergy effects and reduces manufacturing and maintenance costs.

Longitudinal installationtion |
m001_140 |
m001_141 |
The engines of the MAN TGE have been specially designed for commercial vehicles to meet the high requirements in terms of mileage, driving resistance, driving profile and service life. Adjustments were made, for example, to the intercooling, the cylinder head, the variable-length intake manifold, the EGR cooler, the turbochargers and the oil pan.
The installation position is adapted to the commercial vehicle design.
Depending on the drive concept used, the engines are installed transversely or longitudinally - an absolute special feature within a vehicle series.
In addition, transversely installed engines are installed at an angle of 8° to the front in order to make optimum use of the available installation space. Longitudinally installed engines have a larger oil pan and an increased oil quantity.
Engines with one or two turbochargers are used. A total of up to four power stages are available, ranging from 75 kW to 130 kW. The after-treatment of the exhaust gases is carried out by an SCR system for nitrogen oxide reduction. Additional options, e. g. different generators and compressors, are possible with the accessory drive used.

Technical data
The engine is part of the engine series EA288nutz and is installed in this design – beside the MAN GTE – only in the VW Transporter and Crafter. The engine is available in the EU6 plus and EURO VI exhaust emission standards, depending on the application.

Ancillary drive
An ancillary drive with modular expansion capability is used in response to the wide variety of customer requirements. In addition to the usual units such as an alternator and air conditioner compressor, it is also possible to drive an additional air conditioner compressor
or additional alternator. In vehicles with bodies such as camper vans or refrigerated vans, this allows the required form of energy to be provided, e.g. for air conditioning, cooling or driving electrically operated ancillaries.
An elastic belt alone is used as the poly V-belt in an engine with alternator. In all other variants, the poly V-belt is tensioned using a belt tensioner.
