MAN makes TGE digital services free for at least ten years and launches the TGE Connect app

MAN Truck & Bus has expanded the digital service offering for its MAN TGE transporter. The highlight is the introduction of "Lifetime Connectivity" at no additional cost to the customer: all digital services in the vehicle, including online functions and map updates, are now offered without extra charge. Since September, all in-vehicle digital services have been included without additional cost or subscription for at least ten years. Services such as over-the-air updates, a news and weather app and the digital manual therefore remain permanently usable.

To use all the new benefits, the customer needs the new MAN ID, which makes its debut in the MAN TGE and becomes the central access point for the redesigned landscape of digital services. In the vehicle, the MAN ID forms the basis for personalised functions: personal settings are linked to the user profile and applied automatically. The MAN ID also creates the prerequisite for access to further MAN Connect digital services and to the new MAN TGE Connect App.

With the MAN TGE Connect App, MAN is responding to rising expectations for connectivity in the commercial vehicle segment: customers expect direct access to vehicle data, remotely controllable functions and seamless integration into their daily processes. The app bundles these functions into one solution and positions the transporter as an integral part of connected mobility, acting as a platform for future digital services. MAN says the app is part of a comprehensive digital strategy and the basis for continuously expanding functions. The previously chargeable MAN EfficientRoute package is also now permanently integrated into the MAN Connect basic services, and with the start of Lifetime Connectivity, second owners and camping customers gain continuous access to the navigation services.
