Malaysia currently carries three different MAN truck models; CLA, TGM and TGS. The trucks and buses MTBM offers ap- plies to light, medium and heavy duty range.
The 18-tonne TGM model is designed on the principle that a truck that weighs less can load more. With its low unladen weight, it is the payload highlight of its class. When perfor- mance needs to really climb, the 13- and 18-tonnes with all- wheel drive and air suspension on the rear axle are right for the job. The 22-tonner with steered trailing axle for low frame height, high manoeuvrability and large payload also does an impressive job.
The TGS WW is a robust, premium truck that boasts innova- tive technologies and high functionality, without compromise on quality and safety, and sets trends for environmental friend- liness and sustainability.
Recently, SPNB acquired three MAN TGS 33.440 BB-WW 6X4 trucks that were tailored for recovery and towing. They serve as rescue and recovery vehicles for the firm's RapidKL and Rapid- Penang bus fleets. Dubbed as the most sophisticated and larg- est tow trucks in Malaysia, each can tow up to 90 tonnes.
Among MTBM’s plans is to provide after-sales service in more re- gions. MAN Service Centre JB was recently opened as more cus- tomers and the economic boom had made Johor a strategic area. In the pipeline is a service centre in Seberang Perai, Penang.
With its global outreach, MAN Truck & Bus can obtain knowl- edge about cultures and values, sentiments and trends as well as geographical and climatic conditions in the countries it is in. This allows the company to offer vehicles that are customised to suit a particular market and specific demands.
Among the truck series available in Europe is the MAN TGX EfficientLine that won many awards, including "Fleet Truck of the Year" and "Green Truck 2011".
The result of on-going research to reduce CO2 emissions, the new TGX EfficientLine has several efficiency technologies such as the EfficientCruise GPS Tempomat and TopTorque torque enhancer for fuel economy. It is MAN’s most success- ful model in the market. Since its launch in 2010, more than 27,000 were sold.
MAN trucks and buses available in Malaysia are mainly CKD models that are currently assembled in Rawang.
