I've driven the MAN TGX for some long hauls. The fuel economy on this truck stands out, especially with its EfficientLine 3 features. The cab offers considerable space, which is a relief during extended trips, but some materials inside feel less refined. Handling is smooth; the engine performs well even at low revs. Maintenance reliability has improved in recent models, though its past issues still shadow its reputation a bit.

Drove the new TGX with the D30 engine through a bunch of different routes across Europe this season. I gotta say, the fuel numbers are the headline. Used to drive the D26, and this is noticeably cheaper to run, especially long haul. Power's alright, it handled steep grades fine, maybe not mind blowing for acceleration but steady. From what I hear, it's cleaner too with emissions, which is something my company gets hounded about. Haven't owned it long enough for anything to break down but so far so good. Seating is okay, could use more storage space up front though. Not perfect, but they finally moved the tech forward.

So, been driving the new MAN TGX for about half a year now, doing long hauls across Europe. First thing I noticed was how much more comfortable the cab is, especially compared to the last-gen. You can really feel they listened to feedback from drivers with that big list of seat adjustments and nicer mattress. Cab noise is down, climate system’s better, and I swear they made the storage bigger everywhere - finally!

I like the digital dash and that SmartSelect knob instead of a touchscreen, takes a bit to get used to but you don’t have to poke at a screen while bouncing over a rough road. Lights are good too, much brighter. I got to complain a little bit about some of the software in the infotainment - not always as smooth as you’d hope, if you’re in a hurry. Also, the lane assist and other safety nannies are sometimes nagging, but guess that’s just the price today. Otherwise, happy with ride and comfort every day. Wouldn’t mind if it was a tad cheaper, but you get some of it back with lower fuel use.

I will share my experience of using this working horse. In 2.5 years of work, the truck broke down only twice, and not seriously. There was a problem with the electromagnetic sensors, but their elimination turned out to be insignificant. And the autonomous heater is a real lifesaver for me in winter weather.

I wish all drivers could have the opportunity to drive this beauty at least once. You will immediately appreciate both its technical specifications and comfort. This tractor unit is well-suited for long hauls with full loads. If you were to ask me for any drawbacks, I would currently struggle to provide an answer.

I’ve been driving the 2014 MAN TGX for several months now, covering various types of roads and weather conditions. The cabin design stands out with its spaciousness and thoughtful layout, allowing for remarkable comfort during long drives. The Common Rail fuel system's efficiency is evident; however, I noticed slightly longer intervals to achieve optimal air pressure in colder temperatures. The engine performance is reliable, but occasional maintenance on auxiliary components is expected, as with other vehicles in this class.

Having switched from the EURO 5, the EURO 6 provides a noticeable improvement. Emission standards compliance doesn't overly affect engine power, and the dual turbo enhances smoother acceleration even with considerable tonnage. One drawback might be the complexity in maintenance with new systems onboard. Overall, worth considering.

The machine is good in all aspects. There were some minor breakdowns. But it's due to the fact that I meticulously take care of the machine, replace consumables, and operate it carefully. If you don't do this, you won't be able to avoid problems and losses.

I have been working with the Man TGX-440 machine for 9 years now. Everything was going well until the beginning of this year when problems started to arise. At a mileage of 800,000 km, the driven clutch disc broke, and all the springs got loose. I also noticed a coolant leakage from the sensor. Fortunately, we found a solution: we drained the antifreeze, degreased the well where the sensor is inserted, and then applied a reliable sealant before reinserting the sensor. This procedure helped, but we had to wait a whole day to allow the sealant to dry.

I recommend this model to all MAN truck enthusiasts. I bought my machine with a mileage of 380 thousand. When purchasing, I paid the main attention to the quality of assembly, because when I bought my first truck, I made a big mistake. Also, the fuel efficiency and comfort allowed me to make the final choice of this little one.
