New manager of Marine market segment at

MAN Truck & Bus

Claus Benzler has been strengthening the external engines business of MAN Truck & Bus AG in Nuremberg as head of the Marine segment since July 2, 2012. The graduate industrial engineer is responsible for sales, application and service.

In his function as head of Marine, Benzler will further expand the high-speed marine engines business as one of MAN's strategic business segments. Benzler consolidates the core competences of sales, application and service. The biggest challenges facing him in his area of responsibility are the demands of the market for greater power and the increasingly stringent legislation on exhaust emissions. Benzler gained his experience in sales of engine components in the automotive supplier industry. Claus Benzler reports to Reiner Rößner, Vice President and Head of Sales, MAN Engines.
