MAN launches Charge&Go charging service for electric trucks

MAN has launched a new charging service for electric truck operators, providing access to charging points across Europe.

Charge&Go is open to customers of all truck brands and enables automated payments.

A special feature of MAN Charge&Go is the MAN eTruck ready standard. The truck-compatible charging network currently comprises around 650 locations. By the end of 2025, around 1,000 charging locations will comply with the eTruck ready standard.

The MAN Charge&Go charging card is accepted at over 15,000 other charging locations across Europe.

Charging at public charging points is an important criterion for customers when deciding in favour of battery-electric trucks. MAN has developed the eTruck ready standard to ensure that charging in public does not end at unsuitable car charging points. This helps customers to find truck-compatible charging points. Manoeuvrability and height and weight restrictions are among the criteria of the eTruck ready standard.

In the MAN Charge&Go digital map, the truck-compatible charging points are listed in two levels: eTruck ready and eTruck limited. While eTruck ready shows unrestricted truck charging points, the charging points labelled as limited have restrictions - e.g. in terms of vehicle length.

MAN Charge&Go handles the charging process at charging points from different providers. The driver authenticates the charge using a card and the payment process is handled in the background.

The charging service was developed so that mixed fleets can also use the offer. A consolidated invoice at the end of the month provides an overview of the charging costs for the entire fleet at all charging points used.

MAN Charge&Go is integrated into MAN's digital ecosystem. This supports convenient and time-saving planning and work for dispatchers and drivers. In practice, this means, for example, that the charging locations can be displayed in the vehicle or in the MAN DriverApp. The MAN Charge&Go Service Portal provides customers with full transparency regarding charging costs and an overview of the charging cards at all times.
