At a glance

Less fatigue when driving in heavy traffic and traffic jams
The traffic jam assist¹⁾ keeps the truck in the lane and at the required distance to the vehicle ahead.
Avoidance of tailgating and reduction of the collision risk
On motorways or well-developed dual carriageways, the traffic jam assist¹⁾ automatically controls the driveline, the brakes and the steering.

Close, closer, stop

In traffic jam situations on motorways, the traffic jam assist¹⁾ will brake to a standstill behind a stopping vehicle and then move off automatically again. It will guide the vehicle continuously and safely through any traffic jam by gentle steering interventions.

Detects the traffic ahead

A video camera installed behind the windscreen and a radar sensor in the bumper capture the traffic and lane markings.

Stopping and moving off

In the event of a traffic jam or stationary traffic, the MAN Traffic Jam Assist¹⁾ will automatically control the drive and brakes. The traffic jam assist maintains a constant distance to the vehicle ahead down to a standstill. If the traffic jam takes only a short time, it will move off again automatically.

Lane keeping

In addition to maintaining the distance to the vehicle in front, the traffic jam assist¹⁾ also keeps the vehicle in the lane by means of gentle steering interventions. To accomplish this, the system scans the lane markings.
