  floor??? no one dare to answer the enquiry as to whether does it wear off Citaro's gear... I think answer is clear le.. no wonder so many Citaro all breakdown these days... Worn off gear.. only use for 1 yr all buang... Creepy Citaro.. lousy performance!

  Goondu bala! Put citaro on 36 i hope the citaro burn due to overheated engine! I hope SBST derigesters the citaros early! And kubs cant climb the slope? Get ur facts right first.

  Where does the gearshift problem lie? First to second gear? Scania buses are more reliable!

  3rd gear.. not surprising... as the over-rev tend to occur mostly at 3rd

  You're bullshitting. That doesn't mean KUB sucks. Accidents are due to driver's problem!

  Don't give excuse say like not SBST or SMRT or say KUB alot accident. KUB got 1101 units. Let's see more citaro accident in the future before you anyhow whack over here. You like MAN too right? 978 units of citaro, MAN A22 and the MAN bendy trail in future. Let's see if these buses get more accidents.

  Just admit that citaro are not the best.

  I suppose u feel the heat now. Citaros are much more UNRELIABLE! KUB did break down during first few months of revenue service, but after a year, it is no longer breaking down that frequently! What but shitaro? Gearbox problem, fuel tank leaking, breakdowns.

  if a bus need to floor in order to speed.. it's a lousy bus.. fuel consuming also.. somemore prepare to pay more for maintenance of worn off gear.. long run, engine cannot perform le... dunno how to drive, act as though know how to drive, how to keep safe and save cost...

  Agree. I wished that SBST had trialled the bus first before buying 450 units and later another 350 units for bsep.

  Did you even see his post? If Citaro has no problem travelling on a slope why is there still a need to turn off the air-conditioning?

  Maybe in the future SBST or SMRT's Citaros will also encounter this incident.

  Who knows?
