MAN Bus chassis.

Competence and efficiency you can trust.

The international bus market today is largely shaped by enormous market and cost pressures. More than ever before, the focus of endeavour is on measures to improve economy. Performance must be improved, effort reduced. More efficiency is the order of the day. How to get success going, thats the decisive question. We at MAN have a convincing answer to that. Because as a leading international manufacturer of buses and trucks we combine the highest levels of competence with maximum efficiency. The result: bus chassis that open up new directions for your ideas. Innovative and reliable, dynamic and comfortable, powerful, economical and ecofriendly leave cost pressure successfully behind you with our easy-to-build-on bus chassis. If experience and know-how play a fundamental role in your choice of partner, place your trust in MAN because with our chassis for bus bodies of all types and weights, the crucial equipment comes as standard: maximum efficiency.

Efficiency en route.

MAN PM-KAT: separating out particulate during through-flow

Economical engines. Performance coupled with maximum efficiency: this is what characterises MAN engines. In detail, what this means is powerful acceleration starting even at low engine speeds and supreme dynamics, kilometre after kilometre. The innovative six-cylinder engines with their common-rail injection, turbocharging and charge-air cooling are exemplary in their economy and eco-friendliness. To give you greater freedom of design, the diesel engines are available in horizontal and vertical versions and in compliance with emission standards from Euro 3 to Euro 5 and EEV. Natural-gas engines in horizontal design comply with the EEV standard.
Common-rail engine, horizontal version.

Intelligent transmission. How does efficiency get on the road? Via the perfectly harmonised automatic gearbox, for example, whose topography-dependent gear-change programs not only reduce fuel consumption but also increase driving dynamics and comfort. Or via the automated 12-speed MAN TipMatic Coach gear

Efficient exhaust-gas management. The MAN PURE DIESEL concept is a unique technology with ground-breaking advantages. The combination of common-rail engine, cooled exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) and PM-KAT or CRTec filter meets the Euro 5 standard. Some of the engines also meet the even more stringent EEV standard and that without any additives at all. That means: you save the cost of maintenance and additive, need no extra tank for AdBlue , are independent of the AdBlue infrastructure, and are also rewarded by a considerable payload benefit compared to conventional SCR.

box, which reduces consumption as well as wear and tear, makes manoeuvring easier and pulling away on slopes particularly comfortable, thanks to integrated EasyStart technology.

Common-rail engine, vertical version.

Safe travelling. To guard against unpleasant surprises, disk brakes and the electronic braking system EBS keep braking distances short. Interaction with the anti-lock braking system and traction control noticeably improves braking safety and driving stability. The retarder and the patented engine brake from MAN put great braking power at the drivers disposal. The combination of Bremsomat brake control and Tempomat cruise control enables the vehicle to hold a preselected speed exactly, even on steep downhill gradients. The optionally available electronic stability program ESP protects the bus chassis against unpleasant surprises, for example when suddenly avoiding obstacles or when cornering too fast. ESP stabilises the vehicle whenever it is at risk of skidding and keeps it safely in the lane.

Specialities as standard. Clever technical equipment is proof of MANs claim to consistent efficiency, a claim which MAN also makes for its bus chassis. The highly developed front-axle location system for use in tourist coaches increases ride comfort and optimises the handling of the vehicle by reducing the turning circle. The hinged charge-air cooler shortens the time needed for maintenance because it can be cleaned very comfortably and quickly. Advantageous is also the installation preparation for the air-conditioning compressor: the compressor mounting supplied with the chassis makes installation a very simple job. Moreover, the precision of the belt track extends the service life of the V-belt.

Comfort with certainty.

Everything OK, everything under control. Easy-to-read instruments, logically arranged controls, all-round ergonomic design: the MAN drivers workplace is outstanding for its functionality and attention to every design detail. The focal point is the drivers display with its on-board diagnosis for monitoring operation and functions. Just a quick glance and the driver knows whats going on. And the driver who always knows whats going on simply drives more safely. The four-spoke steering wheel can be pneumatically adjusted in height and inclination. The optionally-available multifunction steering wheel enables drivers to operate many of the functions at the push of a button, without ever having to take their hands off the wheel.
