MAN will showcase its first trucks fitted with Scania gearboxes at Hannover's IAA Show in September.

The new models are fitted with the Scania-supplied 12 + 2-speed gearbox, with MAN control software.

The new transmission will initially only be available on 4x2 MAN tractors initially, with no news on when the UK-favoured 6x2 models will benefit.

The new models also make the 640hp version of the D38 engine available to general hauliers, having previously only been offered for heavy haulage.

They also see the end of its predecessor’s Top Torque feature, as all engines now feature the extra 200Nm of torque in all gears.

The changes coincide with the introduction of a modified engine line-up of D26 and D38 engines to comply with the forthcoming OBD2, step C, changes to Euro-6.

The latest models also showcase a new black background for the MAN lion logo, together with a front bumper and grille with improved cooling airflow.
