MAN handed five eTGX trucks to logistics partner J.S. Logistics for its own plant supply, including a roughly 520 km route from Lébény, Hungary, to Munich using a trailer swap halfway. MAN aims to run about 50 electric trucks for inbound transport by mid-2026.

## Key facts

- Other eTGX routes bring parts from a Kirkel hub to Munich (about 400 km) and Nuremberg (about 350 km)
- MAN tested charging-slot reservations with startup Fryte at three plants
