UK, HK new buses have the "push out, sliding doors"Thats still plug doors. Just a different type called sliding plug doors instead of the normal swinging plug doors.

yea, certain parts of the rear needs to be blackened to retain it's wrightness.
back upper deck of the bus can make into the u-shaped thingy, put the cdge b9 style also can, make the whole space more spacious.

Latest info from SBS8533C:
A Wright B9TL spotted travelling along Upp. Serangoon Rd, suspect doing test run.
We'll get to see it soon.

Maybe Monday?

Torque Reduction: TR40
Googled it and it seems like a feature to save the transmission.
Is this what all SBST buses have? Since most SBST buses feel sluggish anyway.
Look at SBST Merc vs. SMRT Merc...

81 needs those B9TL buses. I'm tired on those VSO deploying on 81.

If I'm not mistaken; they don't share exactly the same engines: The power rating of SBST merc is less than the SMRT ones. -

SMRT merz uses the OM447hA[O405] and OM447hLA.[O405.G]
O405 engine is Euro 1, 246bhp@1900rpm/950nm@1350rpm
O405.G engine is Euro 2, 295bhp@2100rpm/1300nm@1450rpm
Which means, O405.G is stronger...

Actually,not to doubt you but, SMRT's Merz uses two models of O405 engine

uhhh.. the citaro will be 100% low floor as it is completely built up and the interior will be fitted out according to ther internal specifications. i think SBST will only have say on minor things such as the seat fabric and the interior colourscheme..
straight staircases consume plenty more space which will result in the loss of 2 pairs of seat on the upper deck. at the lower deck standing room will suffer which means the wheelchair space is compromised as well. and why it is not 100% low floor depends on operator specifications. would u rather have a 100% low floor but narrow aisle or a raised aisle but with a more spacious aisle? the bus is still a low-entry and exit one nonetheless.

if im not mistaken the constraints on the B9TL might be due to the axle configuration. though the axle layout for the B9TL and B10TL are the same, i believe that the suspension and other systems are different.

Its sbst's configuration that makes it not low floor. Both the B9TL and B10TL chassis was available for low floor, as can be seen on kmb's version. Even the first B9TL prototype (AVD1) from kmb was low floor from the start.

I see.
Sorry for the confusion.
But still... Their buses outrun SBST's all the time.
Unless we get some crazy driver with a DM3500.
It really isn't that hard for a 285hp bus to outrun a 250hp bus.
But in Singapore, it happens to be the case.
