The TGX 38 480 comes from Wvt. Production: 2010. The engine has 6 cylinders, with a displacement of 12,419 cm³. The vehicle is 9,000 mm long and 2,550 mm wide. The unladen weight is 14,090 kg. The wheelbase measures 6,450 mm. The gross vehicle weight is 38,000 kg. The vehicle runs on 8 wheels. Unladen weight across the Wvt range ranges from 8,002 to 63,000 kg; the TGX 38 480 sits at the bottom of that range with 14,090 kg. Its immediate neighbours are the TGS 42.480 8X6H BH below it with 14,000 kg and the TGS 39.360 8X4 BB above it with 14,350 kg. Gross vehicle weight across the Wvt range ranges from 11,990 to 63,500 kg; here the TGX 38 480 sits in the middle of that range with 38,000 kg. 72 Wvt models across 2 series are on record.

Wvt – other models: the collective page carrying MAN's TGA, TGL, TGS and TGX type designations, multi-axle special chassis 8x8 and 10x4, 6.9- to 12.4-litre six-cylinder diesels

This page gathers vehicles the register could not assign to a named range, all of which carry the type designations TGA, TGL, TGS and TGX – names used exclusively by MAN for its heavy-truck programme. Under MAN's nomenclature, the number before the dot gives the approximate gross weight in tonnes and the number after it the engine power in horsepower, as in the TGX 38.480 at around 38 tonnes and 480 hp; axle configurations such as 8X8 or 10X4 mark heavy special chassis for tipper, crane or heavy-haul use.

The register lists here 12 versions with displacements from 6,871 to 12,419 cm³, all six-cylinder, unladen weights from 8,002 to 24,620 kg, gross weights from 11,990 to 46,000 kg, lengths from 7,640 to 11,900 mm and widths from 2,360 to 2,550 mm.

MAN's TGA range (2000 to 2007), the light and medium TGL and TGM, and the heavy TGS and TGX since 2007 form the backbone of the European long-haul and construction programme; the multi-axle chassis listed here in 8x8 and 10x4 configuration typically serve as tippers or carriers for crane and special-purpose bodies.

On these heavy chassis, check the condition of the exhaust aftertreatment and particulate filter on the D20/D26 engines, the clutch and gearbox – manual or the automated TipMatic – frame corrosion, especially on construction and tipper duty, and the PTO and hydraulic system on special-bodied units; parts run through the MAN dealer network.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
