Find a Towbar for MAN TGE


All you need to know about towbars for MAN TGE

MAN first introduced the TGE into their range in 2017. The MAN TGE is available as a Chassis Cab, or Van. So you know you are installing the right towbar on your MAN TGE, we have looked at towing capacity, electrical kits, bumper cuts and more for each variation of MAN TGE below.


MAN TGE Van Towbars

The MAN TGE Van was first released in 2017. To determine which variant of MAN TGE you have, check your vehicle logbook. This will ensure you purchase the correct towbar.


MAN TGE Van Nose Weight

Van models made vehicles made after 2017 have a minimum nose weight of 120 kg and a maximum nose weight of 140 kg.

What does nose weight mean?

Nose weight is the force on the towball when a caravan or trailer is attached. Every towbar for every vehicle will have a specific nose weight for that vehicle which can differ between the age of the vehicle and the variation of the model. It is crucial that you don’t exceed the nose weight set on the towbar as this is dangerous and can decrease stability when towing.


MAN TGE Van Electric Kits

Electrical kits connect the electrics in your Van to the electrics on your trailer, bike rack or caravan so your lights are still visible.

Electric kits for MAN TGE Van

We would always recommend having a dedicated electrics kit installed, where possible. This syncs with modern computer functions of your Van, like ABS and trailer stability, rather than just basic lighting.

Why is a dedicated kit important? Well, not only does it work with the specific features of your vehicle, but it also protects the warranty of your Van and works with any enhanced safety features you may have.

Of course, you can choose between a dedicated kit or a universal kit, and we do offer both, but a universal electrical kit can affect your manufacturer warranty and you might also need to install a bypass relay.


MAN TGE Van Software Update

We will alert you as to whether your Van requires a software update when you choose your towbar electrics kit.

Does my vehicle need a software update?

Sometimes your vehicle may need a software update to accommodate your new dedicated electrical kit. This is so all of the latest computer features in your Van can accurately co-ordinate with your towbar electrics.

Software updates can take place at your local MAN dealership when your vehicle is in for service. Or, this can sometimes be updated at your local garage when you arrange towbar fitting through WebFit.


MAN TGE Van Bumper Cuts

Van models made vehicles made after 2017 will not require a non-visible bumper cut in order to be fitted.

Does my vehicle need a bumper cut?

Some towbar styles might require a bumper cut in order to be fitted to your vehicle. But, this is improving and newer vehicles are less likely to require a bumper cut due to better towbar designs.


MAN TGE Van Towing Capacity

Van models made vehicles made after 2017 have a towing capacity of 3000 kg to 3500 kg.

Be sure to check the EXACT towing capacity of your vehicle before towing on your VIN plate.

What is towing capacity?

Towing capacity is the weight that your Van is capable of towing safely, but it can vary even across the same model of car. It is important to note that the capacity of the towbar and the towing capacity of the Van may differ, so you should always go by the specific towing weight of your vehicle, indicated above.
