MAN has designed a TGX 6x2 truck
with exterior paint job matching the colours of the legendary Martini Racing
Team of 1970s, reminding Porsche racing cars renowned for multiple victories in
the 24-hour Le Mans races.
This limited edition TGX model is
seen cruising around Dutch roads lately. Porsche Centrum Gelderland, the
premier Porsche dealer in Netherlands, uses this 400 HP 6x2 truck to transport
customer cars for delivery.
The retro-inspired exterior work
features 3-colour (dark blue, light blue and red) Martini racing stripes in a
predominantly black body, and Porsche badging on both sides. The 'nostalgic'
transporter is equipped with full air suspension and a unique low-profile ramps
allowing for fine adjustment of vehicle height with low ground clearance,
enabling hassle-free transport of multiple cars.
