Penske New Zealand is now supplying all on-highway vehicles within the MAN TGS and TGX range with adaptive cruise control (ACC) as standard.

The feature automatically regulates speed and distance in relation to the vehicle in front when travelling over 25 km/h.

Penske New Zealand national sales manager Dean Hoverd says it improves safety for all road users.

“The TGS and TGX platforms already include key safety features such as electronic stability program which incorporates dynamic stability and roll over prevention.

“And now with the addition of ACC as standard, we are further increasing the safety for drivers, passengers, and other road users.

“There are many systems on the market that use radar only, however MAN’s market-leading ACC comprises both radar and camera to detect speed and distance, and adapts the speed of the vehicle including braking if necessary.

“We are certain that drivers will find ACC very useful for both long haul travel and also heavily populated roads.

“When combining the safety package with great fuel economy and low whole-of-life costs, MAN really does offer a very competitive overall package that makes good business sense,” Hoverd says.
