The Porsche Carrera Cup France is proud to announce a unique collaboration with MAN Truck & Bus France. This partnership is a natural fit within the Volkswagen Group, uniting two brands driven by a shared quest for excellence.
Two Worlds, One Standard
This partnership highlights the intersection of pure speed and logistical power. While the Porsche 911 Cup embodies agility on the track, MAN vehicles represent the essential backbone for the success of every race weekend. Beyond their common membership in the Volkswagen Group, Porsche and MAN share fundamental values that form the foundation of this alliance: • Expertise: Cutting-edge technological know-how, whether it’s shaving off milliseconds on the track or optimizing energy efficiency over long distances. • Reliability: In both motorsport and transport, performance is nothing without absolute consistency. MAN brings this indispensable rigor to the racing ecosystem.
A Strengthened Presence: From the Track to the Screen
The partnership between Porsche Carrera Cup France and MAN will be built around a comprehensive framework ensuring maximum visibility: • At the tracks: The MAN brand will be integrated into the heart of the PCCF during the 2026 season, running from March to November. The championship’s logistics will be managed by a MAN TGX 18.560 4×2 LL SA, tasked with towing the support semi-trailer for spare parts. The vehicle will also serve as an organizational office during the six rounds of the competition. The MAN TGX is equipped with the new MAN PowerLion drivetrain, featuring the 560 hp D30 engine, the MAN TipMatic 14 gearbox, and the latest aerodynamic optimizations, setting new standards for efficiency. It also features state-of-the-art driver comfort equipment, such as MAN OptiView (a digital mirror-replacement system) and MAN ComfortSteering (an active steering system that increases torque for easier maneuvering). Furthermore, the exclusive livery of the MAN TGX, inspired by the Porsche Roughroads – Dakar universe, visually underscores the link between performance, endurance, and competitive spirit. • On Social Media: A dedicated content strategy will offer a behind-the-scenes look at this partnership through various formats.
