MAN SE is a Germany‐based engineering and technology company specializing in the design, manufacture and sale of commercial vehicles, diesel engines and turbomachinery. The company’s commercial vehicle division produces a wide range of trucks, buses and vans under the MAN brand, serving industries such as logistics, construction, public transportation and specialized transport. Its power engineering business offers large-bore diesel and gas engines, turbochargers and related services for marine propulsion, power generation and industrial applications.
Tracing its origins to the late 18th century, MAN SE evolved from regional ironworks into one of Europe’s oldest industrial enterprises. In 1897, the merger of two major German steel producers formed Maschinenfabrik Augsburg-Nürnberg, giving rise to the modern MAN name. Over the ensuing decades, the company expanded into vehicle manufacturing and power engineering, pioneering diesel technology and helping to shape global transport infrastructure.
Today, MAN SE operates across Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia, with production facilities and sales networks in key markets such as Germany, Turkey, Brazil, South Africa and India. Its global footprint is bolstered by localized assembly plants, a comprehensive spare-parts distribution network and an aftermarket service organization that provides maintenance, repair and fleet-management solutions to customers worldwide.
Headquartered in Munich, Germany, MAN SE is structured with a Board of Management responsible for operational leadership and a Supervisory Board providing oversight. As a subsidiary of TRATON SE within the Volkswagen Group’s commercial vehicle arm, MAN SE collaborates closely with sister brands to leverage shared technology platforms, digital services and sustainability initiatives aimed at reducing emissions and enhancing efficiency across its product portfolio.
