Our aim
“Simplifying customer business through leading sustainable solutions.”

Our strategy
The commercial vehicle industry is facing major challenges: In the future, vehicles will be more and more autonomous, connected and have lower emissions. We are seizing this opportunity to consistently realign our company. Our NewMAN strategy builds the foundation. It consists of the strategic thrusts “Robust Company”, “Smart Innovator” and “Strong Team” and sets the direction for the coming years. Our pole star is a fully autonomous, emission-free vehicle at the end of this decade.

What else is behind NewMAN?
At MAN, we want to create competitive and flexible structures in order to become and remain robust and resilient in times of crisis (“Robust Company”). We will focus clearly on the development of new technologies and rely on strong partnerships with TRATON and VW (“Smart Innovator”) in addition to our own innovative strength. We achieve this by each and every employee doing his or her part for the common success – as a “Strong Team”. Sustainability is also part of NewMAN as a decisive business driver of the future.

In 2022, for example, MAN has anchored the topic of sustainability in its corporate strategy and is committed to greenhouse gas total balance neutrality in 2050. The company has pledged to do this as part of the climate protection initiative Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The first step is to save 70 per cent of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) at global sites by 2030 (compared to 2019). The GHG fleet emissions per vehicle kilometre of trucks, buses and vans sold by MAN are to be reduced by 28% by 2030 (compared to the base year 2019). The most important component of the greenhouse gas reduction strategy is decarbonisation through electrification of the fleet. E-buses in various versions and vans with electric drives are already available to customers today. Series production of the heavy MAN eTruck will start in 2024.
