Road Tests & Reviews: MAN TG-L (2006 - )Euro 4


MAN's TGL is one of the few completely new trucks to grace the light truck arena for a number of years and it continues to impress combining a robust design with competitive payload. Employing EGR technology to keep the exhaust emissions under control the little MAN is equipped with a four-pot engine rated at 150-240hp.

Although it's not the most popular 7.5-tonner in the market, MAN's resurgence in 2007 made the TGL an increasingly common sight on the roads. The company has pushed the TGL's 'big truck' characteristics with its generous cab dimensions and unfussy styling, and it's designed for the long haul, keeping drivers well insulated.

Pros:

  • Big-truck feel
  • Comfortable cab
  • Drives well

Cons:

  • Not as light as some
