MAN at IAA 2026: series-production MCS trucks, the new eTGM, and the complete electric ecosystem
MAN’s Hanover stand: the industry’s first series-production MCS tractors (750 kW, nine markets), the eTGM rigid completing the range, and the full portfolio from city distribution to 570 km long-haul — plus Traton’s Milence corridor story.

MAN’s IAA 2026 stand is built around a first: the industry’s only series-production megawatt-charging trucks. The eTGX and eTGS with MCS (750 kW) entered series production in Q2 and are already delivering in nine European markets, claiming 1,000+ km of daily range within diesel working hours. Alongside: the new eTGM rigid (up to 500 km) completing an electric portfolio from urban distribution to long-haul, with further variants due in H2.
The positioning is deliberately systemic: vehicle (CCS 375 kW and MCS 750 kW), infrastructure (Traton’s co-founded Milence — 34 hubs in May, 90 by 2028, MILES’ 284 MCS points by 2027), and services (maintenance contracts, fleet management, the TIP rental channel’s 1,800-truck 2026–28 electrification programme). MAN’s message to fleets is that the ecosystem is purchasable now, not in 2028.
For Hanover visitors: MAN is the stand for MCS answers — real charging curves, the 9-market delivery map, and written MCS terms for new orders. Our comparison’s performance dimension will fold in the series-production evidence at the next score review.
