Man Truck & Bus Korea Launches Dump Truck Equipped with New Euro 6D Engine

Equipped with New D26 Engine Featuring Simplified Structure and Enhanced Durability

[Asia Economy Reporter Jihee Kim] MAN Truck & Bus Korea, the Korean subsidiary of MAN Truck & Bus Group, has launched a dump truck that meets Euro 6D regulations.

Following the introduction of small and medium-sized cargo truck lineups meeting Euro 6D regulations in November last year, MAN Truck & Bus Korea unveiled tractor and large cargo truck lineups in February and April this year. With the launch of the Euro 6D dump truck, all lineups equipped with Euro 6D engines are now available domestically.

The most notable feature of the new MAN dump truck is its engine. The D26 engine installed in the MAN Euro 6D dump truck has increased power and torque by 10 horsepower and 10 kgf·m respectively compared to the Euro 6C engine. Additionally, the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) function has been enhanced and the engine structure simplified. Durability has been improved and energy-saving features adopted, resulting in up to a 4% improvement in fuel efficiency.

The auxiliary braking system uses a retarder, which is highly preferred by customers. The MAN Euro 6D dump truck is equipped with a retarder providing a maximum braking force of 3500 N·m, combined with an electronically controlled engine brake to deliver powerful auxiliary braking force of up to 1200 horsepower.

Safety features have also been strengthened. The truck is equipped with a Lane Guard System (LGS), Electronic Stability Program (ESP), and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA). Adaptive cruise control with stop & go functionality reduces driver fatigue during congested traffic conditions.

Various features for off-road driving have been added. The off-road TipMatic gearbox software installed in the Euro 6D dump truck is specially designed to operate in sections requiring strong driving force. The rear differential lock, which equalizes the rotational speed of the left and right drive wheels, can be used when one wheel is stuck in a puddle or when the difference in rotational force between the wheels prevents the vehicle from moving.

Additionally, the spacious cab with new colors and decals features a 4-point cab air suspension, and a high-mounted bumper and straight I-beam axle are standard, ensuring comfortable driving anytime and anywhere.

The newly launched MAN Euro 6D dump truck model also comes with MAN Truck & Bus Korea’s maintenance program, the ‘Carefree4 Package,’ free of charge, enabling systematic management.

Max Burger, President of MAN Truck & Bus Korea, said, “We are pleased to complete the Euro 6D lineup with the launch of the MAN Euro 6D dump truck. In particular, this dump truck reflects the opinions of domestic customers, and we hope they enjoy a vehicle of superior quality after waiting patiently.”
