Research goal: greater safety in road traffic
Safety for drivers and road users is a central interest of the MAN Nutzfahrzeuge Group. We build trucks and buses with innovative technological solutions that meet all the recognised requirements for traffic safety.
Shorter braking distances with MAN BrakeMatic®
Matured brake systems are an important requirement for a high level of safety. Effortless braking characteristics are ensured, for example, on the TGX by the intelligent
MAN BrakeMatic®
with the electronic brake system, EBS.
Fewer gearshifts, more concentration with MAN TipMatic
Fully automated gearboxes increase the span of attention of drivers. The MAN TipMatic® system is operated both as fully automatic and manually per one-touch lever. This greatly relieves the strain on drivers involved in distribution traffic where more frequent is required. They can concentrate on what the traffic is doing.

No danger of skidding or overturning with ESP
The electronic monitoring of the driving dynamics protects the driver and vehicle if there is a risk of skidding or overturning. The electronic stability program (ESP) in MAN TGX semitrailer tractors as well as various MAN and NEOPLAN bus models continuously monitors the dynamic driving state of the vehicle and intervenes automatically in the engine management and brake system in the event of imminent danger.

Whether brakes, shock absorbers, driver assistance systems for safe turning or monitoring tyre inflation pressure - the MAN Nutzfahrzeuge Group sets standards in the research and development of new, reliable solutions for comfortable, aware and safe road use.
