About the Man HX60

The Man HX60 is a German military tactical truck built for heavy logistics and off-road transport. In Australia, these vehicles suit buyers who need serious capability for remote work, large-scale equipment movement, or specialist off-road projects. Their robust construction makes them a practical choice when standard commercial vehicles fall short of the task.

For compliance, we look at the specific chassis code and build date. The SEVS approval covers all variants of the SV 18.330 chassis built between January 2007 and January 2020. If your vehicle falls within this range, it can be complied under this approval. We do not have current auction price data for this model, so we recommend contacting us to discuss your specific requirements.

If you are interested in sourcing one, invite us to search for a Man HX60 that fits your needs. Our team can handle the entire process from finding the right vehicle to ensuring it meets Australian standards before registration in Queensland.
