With the transformation to climate-neutral drives, road freight transport is facing a groundbreaking change. MAN will start production of its electric long-haul truck in 2024. We have already received over 500 order inquiries. Production of the new MAN eTruck will start at the main plant in Munich from 2024. It will initially roll off the production line there in mixed production with conventional diesel trucks. The concept, which aims to make around half of all trucks produced by MAN each year electric by 2030, will also integrate MAN’s other plants. For example, Krakow will produce larger quantities of diesel trucks as electromobility ramps up in order to create more capacity for electric trucks in Munich.
MAN will start producing its own batteries at the Nuremberg plant in 2025, with the aim of producing around 100,000 of them per year from 2030. Salzgitter will also play a key role in the transformation as a component plant for non-driven axles and crankshafts for the new Group engine developed jointly by all Traton Group manufacturers. The site is also responsible for MAN’s global spare parts logistics, which will increasingly include electric components in the future.
In order to be able to cover long transport distances electrically, for example, long-distance trucks should be able to be fully charged during the driver’s 45-minute break. MAN is involved in the development of the megawatt charging system (MCS) required for this via the NEFTON project with numerous partners. The new MAN eTruck is already technically prepared for this MCS standard, which is expected to be available from 2025. This means that long-distance daily ranges of up to 1,000 kilometers will be possible in the future. And with its variable battery configurations of between 300 and 500 kWh of usable capacity, it will also easily cover other typical transport tasks of today’s trucks, for example low-noise and emission-free waste disposal in the city or the more climate-friendly collection of milk from organic farmers.
MAN is also making intensive preparations for electromobility in the area of charging infrastructure and is building 1,700 high-performance charging points for trucks along major European highways in a joint venture with Traton and other partners over the next five years. In addition, MAN is already providing customers with comprehensive advice on switching to electromobility and is also offering the necessary charging infrastructure via partners.
