- 1. Voith DIWA

Actually both have it's advantages and disadvantages.The Advantages and disadvantages for Voith DIWA are stated below:Advantages: Engine not so loud when on the upper deck, Moves faster abit sometimes and doesn't "tick" frequently for 70% of the busesDisadvantages: Sometimes is very jerky and when moving down from upper deck to lower deck will fall down(on SBS3081Y)The Advantages and disadvantages for ZF Transmission are stated below:Advantages: Moves faster, Not jerky at allDisadvantages: Loud engine when on upper deck, "ticks" more frequentlyMaybe we can combine voith's nice transmission with the zf's speed.
The Batch 2Bs are friggin' slow... although their voith diwa 864.5 is super nice when speeding...

Voith depends if the driver can keep the engine from shifting up too fast.
Anyways is ZF or Voith more fuel efficient for citybus operations since more gears = better fuel efficiency?

Actually it depends on the driver's skill. All the Batch 2B wright BC for service 166(except 3081Y) is very well trained in driving a wright with voith gearbox. but when a ZF wright is replacing the voith wright's slot, I noticed the BCs of those voith gearbox having difficulties coping with ZF. I was wondering whether did SBST let them train on both type of buses with different gearbox, and the journey would delay for several minutes.
