A mighty lion now even stronger

The MAN Lion’s Coach – The reliable backbone of your fleet

MAN’s commercial vehicle expertise and service at its best.

Reliability has a whole new meaning with the MAN Lion’s Coach. With its powerful common-rail engines, perfectly tuned gearbox and extended maintenance intervals, the Lion’s Coach can now be on the move for longer, with more power and efficiency guaranteed.

We promise you maximum vehicle availability thanks to:

... a superbly designed and highly efficient driveline
combined with fuel-efficient assistance systems.

... a noticeable reduction in time spent at the workshop
thanks to the extended service intervals and the MAN service interval calculator.

... full light-emitting diode headlights
that can take care of all light functions at the front and rear for increased active safety throughout the vehicle’s service life.

... much higher resistance to corrosion
as the innovative manufacturing process means there is no need for the engine compartment flap to have a steel frame (no compromise is made on dimensional stability as a result).

... a new multi-part front panel concept
with a significant improvement to the kinematics. Alongside the optimised operating concept, it is now easier to get hold of and replace individual parts, meaning that the costs of repairs and the time taken for servicing can be cut down.

... full support with MAN services:
from repair and maintenance management and the ideal financing solution to professional driver training sessions and mobility assistance.

Powerful and efficient at the same time

With the Lion’s Coach, your travel is consistently efficient, reliable and environmentally friendly. The six-cylinder engines of the D26 series provide up to 510 hp drive power, with low fuel consumption and long maintenance intervals. The latest MAN technologies for engine efficiency and exhaust-gas cleaning additionally ensure reliable compliance with the Euro 6 standard. And thanks to our automatic gearbox MAN TipMatic® Coach, you can drive your Lion's Coach comfortably and economically on any route.

Highly efficient power pack with Euro 6

The latest generation of our proven MAN D26 engines, with up to 510 hp and 2,600 Nm torque, ensures that the Lion's Coach reaches its destination with more power and efficiency. Despite having 10 hp more power than the previous version, our new D26 engines weigh 70 kg less and meet all the requirements of the Euro 6 standard. The common-rail engines have highly effective exhaust-gas cleaning with SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) and the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system. Technical developments such as optimised thermal management, the two-stage fuel filtration system or the actuation on-demand of the three-phase alternators by means of the LIN (Local Interconnect Network) interface additionally provide the best in motor performance.

Smart gearbox for outstanding driving comfort

Smart gearbox technology ensures that power is converted into dynamics as effectively as possible in your Lion’s Coach: The MAN TipMatic® Coach automated 12-speed manually operated gearbox selects the right gear for every driving situation and adapts the engine speed during gear changes. In direct 11th gear, the automatic gearbox achieves efficiency of 99.7%. Its SmartShifting function combines a fast shifting sequence through SpeedShifting across all gears, with upshift assistance and gear selection according to the current driving situation. The integrated tilt sensor provides special assistance when moving off. The automatic gearbox uses the additional sensor data and reliably detects the right gear according to vehicle weight and the current landscape topography.

Our MAN TipMatic® Coach gearbox also achieves top marks when it comes to noise and reliability. Technical developments decrease the operating noise of the gearbox by 6 dB(A) in comparison with the previous model. And we were able to increase the service life of the mechatronics 1.6-fold. The TipMatic® Coach gearbox will of course always offer you the choice between fully automatic and manual gearshifts.
