Interesting as a friend is Switching from a TGX 2018 500HP top spec to a Scania R450 2018 as the MAN had many electrical fault, two sets off batteries replaced, the stationary climate system not working correctly, the gearbox mishandling shifts. A truck with about 100K km on the clock used only in the day and no sleeping in the cab.
I drive one of these a few yrs ago was a 540hp I really enjoyed it very comfortable truck well designed. I drive a Scania r650 now I like it way more but the MAN seat was much better on my back
we had the new MAN TGX on demo this week, its soo good. is so more comfortable then like a scania S or a Merc actros or a daf. ours had 470 hp but outpulled a daf XF 480. man did such a good job on this one. happy this one didnt turn out like the previous one!
I live in Canada and as a truck driver I would love to have these trucks here they look much nicer and have many more functions and the size of the fridge is humongous
@@bicyclenerd.9377 But the US trucks will smoke the scania in highway speed and high speed fuel economy. and lets not even start a comparison between bunk space because this will just lead to the scania running back home in tears.
@@angrysocialjusticewarriorthat’s because Europe has strict rules about maximum truck speeds that are mostly 80 Km/h or because y’all Americans want to be different: 50 mph and in some countries 90 km/h (55 mph) if they didn’t have that rule then European Trucks would beat American trucks easily
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior They're only capable of doing that because they have no nuts. North American engine/transmission combos are weak-sauce compared to their European brethren. The Euro models will smoke *any* standard NA model while pulling up hills. It's not about how fast you can go on flat ground.
I like this channel because the steering wheel is right... mostly on other channels, especially in Europe, on the left steering wheel... I'm in Indonesia myself and it uses the right steering wheel. I hope this channel grows...
Great video Stavros. It's a pity you didn't get a chance to go round the old TGA as a compare and contrast. Also, it would be interesting to see how well she has held up after over a million kms. I have a 2020 TGX which is lovely, apart from the fact it's the first ever auto box I've had. How I miss the old manual box. MAN are mad dropping that as an option. It was a fantastic gearbox. I've Driven MAN's for twenty odd years now. All been great.
I'm not expect to see the engine hump in the biggest cabin of the MAN new trucks line up I'll go with my old Actros MP3 with its total flat floor all day long back here in KL
Volkswagon is now at the head of Navistar here in the US, when will we see the awesome D38 in our Lonestar's?? Not to mention the Scania V8's Ya'll have all the cool stuff, we want some. LOL
Parabéns pela avaliação, como sempre bem detalhada e imagem perfeita. Excelente caminhão o MAN , aqui no Brasil agora é vendido como VW Meteor. Abraços.
I was happy he let you take the test drive but surprised he let you drive it first! Thanks, Iver. I enjoyed the video but I think you might have a bias toward Scania! Thanks Stavros for a great video.
Getting one of these in June in the 6x2 mid lift configuration to replace a 2016 TGX 480 still pulls well even when fully freighted Looks very nice cheers for the review Stavros
You missed one part in this tgx, on the corners, you have these sensors so when you have someone in your blind spot they go off, and they flash to tell you there is someone there, so pretty cool feature, they are located on the corner parts where the your mirros are mounted, but they are inside the cab
as i know, MANs and Scanias are both subsidiary of VW. so i think they build on the same platform. maybe their engine, chasis and gearbox are similar. Am i correct?
Looks like a decent truck, I'm surprised how much it looks like the old models inside in certain areas but the dash and fridge looks a huge improvement. Is that steering wheel smaller?? But I still want one.
Does the new TGX have a better turning circle than the old one?We are getting some in a few weeks and where we go and have to spin our DAF CF's and Mercs drivers from other companies who use the old TGX can't spin them in the same space.We are talking blind siding at a 90 degree angle at a Lidl store.Could be in for some fun and games if they don't.
V.W also own Scania so there could be many shared parts in the future. V.W. own twelve major car / truck brands have 100 production facilities and 300000 employees amazing from next to nothing in 1945. That's what you call a turnaround.
MAN now have a great gearbox in the traxon by ZF, it really is great, very smooth, and also quick to shift, albeit not quite as quick as the new Scania Opticruise perhaps - but on the plus side I'd bet you it's more reliable than the opticruise in the long run. I mean if they wanted it to shift faster ZF could easily do that, they afterall designed & produce the fastest shifting automatic transmission since 2017 with their ZF8HP line, which is used in a wealth of high performance cars.
The buttons on door at the bottom are a brilliant idea the amount of times I go to open the passnager side door and have to climb in to push button as I have a DAF . Would be good to put the PTO switch there Aswel as on dash . Good idea that
nice evolution , interesting benchmarks with the scania from stavros, but they should consult drivers like stavros about some small details when designing it , this truck is a long time coming and the dash is way better than the old disaster design of the middle area, the door walk-round buttons are a superb idea, the speaker in the locker was a very odd thing especially how far it sticks out, rachet strap sets are going to wreck that speaker . good luck to m.a.n , the original tga was a peach and the thumb clutch was a novel idea till the full auto came along. i hope the tgx gets alot of new customers.
After watching the Iveco S-way video, the Iveco seems better thought out. Having oil dipstick, able to top the washer fluid easily etc etc. And front airbags on the cab. No armrests for the passenger. Some VAG cheaping there.
Hi Stavros, how does it compare to the previous TGX. I always enjoyed driving those, but felt the were a bit fragile, and hard work to manoeuvre. But for doing a cruise to Felixstowe to Manchester, nothing would beat it for comfort. It does look like a gorgeous truck though. Sadly my company seems wedded to Scania!. Cheers
Spent a lot of time in an old TGX and loved them, This looks like a step in the right direction but oh so much is carried over from the old truck. But do really want to get some seat time in one now.
I love the new MAN. I just feel sad they no longer have that extra window on top. It’s just nicer imo because you have so much light that comes in and that is like a feature that no other truck has. I wish MAN reads this and will add it.
That TGA looks very good for it's age :-O
Really like the sound of that MAN - the grumble. Also like those air horns. Small things, but nice things.
Got my TGX 510 coming in July with a loads of extras , moving over from a Scaina S500 to save myself a fortune lol.
Hi, I'm wondering how much does it cost new MAN ,can you share some info please?
How much do you lose with changing such a new truck?
Interesting as a friend is Switching from a TGX 2018 500HP top spec to a Scania R450 2018 as the MAN had many electrical fault, two sets off batteries replaced, the stationary climate system not working correctly, the gearbox mishandling shifts.

@@basherman1028 Many thanks for your detailed reply 👍
I'm paying £429 a week with rosd tax and r&m. With microwave, rotating seat , alloys, leather seats and camera package on the 510
Heh, proper side. As a Dane, I've had several times during your videos where my brain went "Holy hell he's on the wrong side of the road!".
Relax he's just overtaking some invisible cars . 😉

Cheers to you and of course the owner of the M.A.N when he let you drive his new truck :)
The turn signal sound is so satisflying!
Really a spectacular looking truck. How I wish these were available in the states.
Great!!!! we need those fitures and engines in the USA!!!

Many things are copy from Scania.
@@bitang69 yes, but because of that and very many improvements of things from man them selfs makes it so good.
Underrated Truck in my opinion
@@silverarrow2013 it is such An underrated truck, sadly they didn't buy any but bought Iveco S-way, also pretty Nice trucks, only cheap interior
I live in Canada and as a truck driver I would love to have these trucks here they look much nicer and have many more functions and the size of the fridge is humongous
These euro trucks especially the scania will smoke the Pete 379 389 and Freightliner Cascadias going up the mountains.
@@bicyclenerd.9377 But the US trucks will smoke the scania in highway speed and high speed fuel economy. and lets not even start a comparison between bunk space because this will just lead to the scania running back home in tears.

Hi Stavros hope your having a good week and a happy Sunday from England. Another great video. Keep up the great work
Cheer’s 👍
Being old skool!!! I don't think i could possibly get the hang of all this modern technology in trucks.
Man I just love the right hand drive
I'm Muhammed a truck driver from Nigeria and I have been watching you love the way you explain our job thanks

Not gonna lie as an American, those European trucks look sexy.
That is a impressive looking truck,like the color.
Hye stavros..in ur opinion , what ur recommended truck?? Scania , Volvo or MAN ?? please answer my question..
How many gears does this truck have?
Stavros, No issues with the right hand mirror being too close to pillar for visibility like the old MANs??
Thank you Stavros for this video. I drive a Volvo 780 here in USA. I would like to have a Volvo with 750 HP or a Scania with 770 HP in USA.
Great video!
Very thorough run through.
Much appreciated 👍
When will Scania come to the USA? I really wish they would come sell in the USA.... I would buy one Johnny on the spot if they did.
He certainly knows he's stuff on the big trucks 🚚
as i know, MANs and Scanias are both subsidiary of VW. so i think they build on the same platform. maybe their engine, chasis and gearbox are similar. Am i correct?
Always on the look out for your great videos Stavros.....Good job
I enjoyed watching the Video Review. The latest design looks great 👍
GL with MAN,if there is at least half of the problems I have with tgx 470 you will be lucky drivers
Mr.stravos could you put left hand driving trucks it would be nice
Looks like a decent truck, I'm surprised how much it looks like the old models inside in certain areas but the dash and fridge looks a huge improvement. Is that steering wheel smaller?? But I still want one.
New MAN TGX is so beautiful 😍
@Crivala Tea Official hi
Would be great to see you test Sisu trucks.
i forgot to say this a long time ago but Congratulations on 100,000 Subscribers
Wish the United States had these.
Nice video stavros and a nice MAN truck ,beautiful inside and dashboard 👍👍have a nice sunday
Oh that sound! Love the rumble
Does the new TGX have a better turning circle than the old one?We are getting some in a few weeks and where we go and have to spin our DAF CF's and Mercs drivers from other companies who use the old TGX can't spin them in the same space.We are talking blind siding at a 90 degree angle at a Lidl store.Could be in for some fun and games if they don't.
I've been stalking your Instagram waiting for the video to drop.
Hi stavros
Some trucks have the engine start feature in the door buttons, I just wanted why is it there?
V.W also own Scania so there could be many shared parts in the future. V.W. own twelve major car / truck brands have 100 production facilities and 300000 employees amazing from next to nothing in 1945. That's what you call a turnaround.
MAN have definitely done well with this new model, just hope the gearbox ain't as bad as the older models 😂
MAN now have a great gearbox in the traxon by ZF, it really is great, very smooth, and also quick to shift, albeit not quite as quick as the new Scania Opticruise perhaps - but on the plus side I'd bet you it's more reliable than the opticruise in the long run.

@@bellator11 Sounds good then mate, bravo MAN 👏🏻
Is this international truck of the year 2021 in the world or in Europe only?
Can u say which truck ia better in what. Daf xf 6 wheels Mercedes acteroz mp4 6 wheels and this truck but with 6 wheels? Thx
Wow love it have a nice day
The buttons on door at the bottom are a brilliant idea the amount of times I go to open the passnager side door and have to climb in to push button as I have a DAF . Would be good to put the PTO switch there Aswel as on dash . Good idea that
Can the center info screen be controlled by touch or only via the little wheely thingy?
why they give 12 and 24V socket only? why not 230V AC? How to plug in and charge laptop?
Beautiful Truck Stavros. I wouldn't mind taking the keys to one.
Review that TGA Stav, would be nice to watch
Excellent video. Thanks 😊
Can't wait to see one in person!

For india the highways look so nice and getting a load of 40 tons to Ireland will be a long ride.
Stavros would you have a MAN 640 over your current Scania V8 - if so why ???
Like MAN...👍👍
Great video Stavros. Thanks to you and the generous new owner. 👍

Great video as always Stavros, have a good rest of the day 👍🏼
Nice one Stavros
Great video Stauros!!
Any relation with Greece??
Are the new VW trucks the same as this or are they based on the older model?
The front lower grill chrome parts looks similar to Scania's... Oh just remembered they're both part of VAG
Great video Stavros969
When Will it arrive in south Africa
Hey bro where is u r old horn sound ? That’s nice...
Great truck!
It’s a nice looking truck and drives fairly nice but our fleet are now chucking up plenty of problems!
What do you like in this truck that is not in your current Scania?

Another great video stavros cheeers 👌🏽
Yeah drive on the left side of the road is the correct side of the road.

Does it only run on six cylinders?,
