Photo: MAN Truck & BusWhat we make of it
MAN's electric flagship, rebuilt for the 2026 IAA with nickel-rich cells that add roughly 10% more energy in the same physical space. It is aimed squarely at 40-tonne long-haul work that used to be considered out of reach for a battery truck, and it is the range leader of the two trucks on this site. It is also the more expensive one by a wide margin.
| Battery capacityNet capacity, stated by MAN at the Munich press conference. The pre-Gen-2 seven-pack figure was 623 kWh; the nickel-rich cells add about 10%. | 660 kWh | official |
|---|---|---|
| Range, claimedMAN's headline figure for the Gen-2 6×2. | 720 km | official |
| Range, loadedOur estimate: claimed range less roughly 11%, the usual gap between a headline figure and full legal payload on a motorway. | 640 km | our estimate |
| Range we would plan againstWhat we would schedule against year-round. Winter, traffic and an arrival reserve included. | 500–550 km | our estimate |
| PowerMAN raised the top output to around 600 hp for the Gen-2. The lower figure is the entry drive. | 333–598 hp | reported |
| Charging power, mostMegawatt Charging System, up to 1000 A at 750 V. | 750 kW | official |
| Charge 20 to 80 %MAN quotes under 40 minutes for the seven-pack chassis at 623 kWh. The Gen-2 pack is larger, so treat 40 minutes as the floor, not the ceiling. | 40 min | official |
| Price, indicativeIndicative list price for a long-haul specification. Not a quote. Fleet pricing lands lower. | €260 000–€320 000 | our estimate |

The range. MAN's 720 km is a real number under favourable conditions, but it is not a scheduling number. The gap between the headline and a January motorway run at 40 tonnes is large — that is what the realistic band is for. On a Belgian duty of around 400 km a day, every version here does the job on one overnight charge at the depot, which is the case that matters for cost.
The charging. The eTGX is MCS-ready from the factory since July 2026, charging at up to 750 kW. That is enough to add most of a battery over a driver's 45-minute rest. It does not mean you need it: for a depot-based fleet doing under 500 km a day, overnight DC charging at far lower power is cheaper per kWh and cheaper to install. Megawatt charging is what makes the long days possible, not what makes the business case.
The cost. The purchase price is the whole argument. At an indicative €260k–320k the eTGX costs roughly €60k–120k more than the Windrose R700, and in Belgium that gap has to come back out of fuel and toll savings. Whether it does depends on your fleet size, annual mileage and diesel price — which is exactly what the calculators on this site are for.
