FRANKFURT, July 23 (Reuters) - German truck and engineering group MAN does not want to part with its truck business, Chief Executive Rudolf Rupprecht was quoted on Wednesday as saying.
"We have no intention to sell the commercial vehicles unit," he told Focus Money weekly in a summary of an article due to appear on Thursday. "Building commercial vehicles is our core business and we want to make it even stronger."
Sources told Reuters earlier this month German carmaker Volkswagen was interested in MAN's trucks and had held preliminary talks with the company and its top shareholder Allianz .
