eTGX 40t

The MAN eTGX 40t has an Irish list price of €370,000 (including 23% VAT). After the ZEHDV Truck Grant of €50,000, the net cost is approximately €320,000. Confirm current pricing with your authorised dealer and verify grant eligibility at seai.ie.

The MAN eTGX 40t has a WLTP official range of 350km. In real-world Irish conditions — stop-start delivery routes, cold mornings and motorway runs with payload — expect approximately 270km per charge. This is sufficient for Dublin to Cork (260km) on a single charge.

The MAN eTGX 40t may qualify for the Zero Emission Heavy Duty Vehicle (ZEHDV) grant from SEAI, worth up to €50,000 for eligible N3 category vehicles. Applications are made through SEAI's commercial vehicle grant programme. Fleet operators should also investigate LSAD (Low-Sulphur Alternative Diesel) infrastructure grants and APEEN EU fleet decarbonisation funding. Contact SEAI directly at seai.ie for current eligibility.

WLTP range of 350km is measured at 80% payload under standardised conditions. Real-world Irish range under full load, motorway speeds and varying weather conditions is estimated at 270km. For route planning, use 80% of stated WLTP as a conservative daily planning figure. Depot charging overnight on a 150kW+ DC charger is recommended for vehicles operating long-haul routes.

Depot charging for trucks typically requires a 150kW+ DC fast charger per vehicle slot or a high-power AC charger for overnight top-up. ESB ecars Business, EasyGo Fleet and several independent suppliers operate in Ireland. SEAI's EV Infrastructure grant can support up to 75% of installation costs for commercial depots. De Energy Hub lists commercial charging hubs — contact us to list your depot or find nearby charging infrastructure.

Electric trucks have higher upfront purchase costs but significantly lower operating costs. Fuel savings of €30,000–€60,000 over a typical 5-year/500,000km fleet lifecycle are common at current Irish diesel and electricity prices. The ZEHDV grant offsets initial price. Maintenance savings (no diesel particulate filter, oil service, AdBlue, turbo) add further value. Most fleet operators report TCO parity or better within 3–4 years.

Yes. MAN Truck & Bus is part of TRATON Group, majority-owned by Volkswagen AG. TRATON also includes Scania, Navistar and Volkswagen Caminhões. MAN has a well-established commercial vehicle dealer and service network in Ireland.

The MAN eTGX 40t supports up to 150kW DC and 22kW AC charging. At a 7.4kW home wallbox, a full charge takes approximately 65 hours. At a 50kW ESB ecars rapid charger, 10–80% takes around 403 minutes. At the maximum 150kW DC rate, 10–80% takes approximately 134 minutes.

The MAN eTGX 40t uses CCS (DC fast charging) and Type 2 (AC), compatible with all major Irish networks including ESB ecars, Ionity, EasyGo, Circle K and Applegreen.

Motor tax for the MAN eTGX 40t is €1020 per year — the rate for a zero-emission heavy goods vehicle (HGV) in the 40t GVW class. Commercial vehicle motor tax in Ireland is determined by gross vehicle weight (GVW), not CO₂ emissions. You can verify the exact band for your vehicle at motortax.ie.
