Göran Nyberg, executive board member for sales and marketing at MAN Truck & Bus SE, said: “The first time I looked at this truck, it really gave me goosebumps. This is a statement coming down the road – both exterior wise and interior wise. I bet that we will have a lot of our customers drivers and owner operators that will be proud of driving an MAN down the road. This truck is really a beauty!”
