In Singapore, i'll definitely select the M-B O 405 G with Hispano Habit bodywork !
As far as bus-chassi is concerned, the O 405 G offers 1st class suspension ride comfort, purpose-built low height gentle inclination ergonomic dashboard (instead of truck dashboard like some others !), excellent turn-table design in terms of function, aesthestics & finish. Not surprising since in Hispanos case here, that's original M-B hardware !
As far as bus bodywork is concerned, overall it's the Hispano Habit because of its solidness of construction (hardly any rattles, crackles & squeaks coming from the bodywork part unlike the overall not-so-good ones like Volgrens & Duple-Metsec etc.), superior levels of fit, finishing & style.
However, Hispano can do better by improving on the finishing & aesthetics of the roof-top ! Do not assume that all buses here are only 1 deck high & people cannot see the rooftop of the Hispano buses !
On the bus-chassi side, select a quieter type of air-con compressor instead of the loud drony types now used. I notice the interior noise, vibration & harshness levels are so much lower only when the air-con compressor is off !
Transmission NVH levels seem lower than on some O 405 here, but i believe it can be further reduced if they had used the M-B gearbox instead. I've riden on some O 405 via TransitLink in JB with almost no whinning, grinding etc. transmission noises ! Overall their O 405 are quieter than those here, although theirs not so well maintained as those here.

SMRTB Mercedes-Benz O 405G Volgren,IMO it's the coolest looking bendy SMRTB ever had.The interior was fine or should i say even better than Habit!

SMRTB Mercedes-Benz O 405G Habit-Hispano,The most cool-looking European-bodied bus we'll ever had in SG.Overall the finest behind Volgrens

3

SMRTB Mercedes-Benz O 405G Hispano Version 2,Not bad at all.
4

SBST Mercedes-Benz O 405GN Volgren,Not bad AT all if only they could activate the rear EDS

5

SBST Volvo B10MA Duple Metsec,Aparts from its ugly rear side,I think it's an average looking bendy.IMO They should put dress rims including for the rear rims too

Interesting to know that it is the longest bendy in Asia

Mercedes-Benz O 405G Hispano Version 1,The interior that really don't favour me at all.Looks quite dull in ranks of the B10MA too
