Where did they mention about Euro VI? On the official press release it stated Euro V. I was thinking that it's still the old facelift Citaro but with the daytime LEDs (post 2012 version).
As for the Wright it should just be a minor facelift too to include the LEDs.
Eh Tauke the Citaro part they got mentioned euro iv..the B9TL stands at euro V.. -
The drivers of old non-WAB buses on WAB service might just 'abandon' the buses in the depot.

The recently installed telemetrics on newer SMRT Buses did not help. Instead of cruising naturally, BCs are now forced to brake frequently to keep the buses under 55km/h.

Already you can see many Wrights cameoing on JIS services already. -
I think these buses will also be part of the new services and additional fleet they will require for:
1. Sengkang West
2. Punggol West & Punggol North East
3. Tampines North
4. Joo Koon/Tuas
5. Tampines West

Thats why i hate Sg heavy vehicle speed limiter imposed on buses especially,Should have limit to 65kmh max the best..under 60 carbon will clogged inside the exaust system and its unhealthy for the engine too..Once a while engine need to blast to clear carbon built up.. -

65/70 better, besides can keep up on the expressways

more citaros?
like seriously? i just hate the rear aisle there
very hard to stand around there. i wonder who's idea to order this bus
no complaining though but the bus is ok for me. just that aisle only
-
The bus is ok for you except for the rear axle that you seriously hate?

Citaro a cannot manage heavy loads. But the cherry on the icing is the bigger order of DDs. Hence, if Citaros are doing the off-peak direction of a service, should be okay.

Its good if they purchase Citaro LE also..great for svc 3/27..

The Citaro is as good (or as bad) as the operator's specifications. Mercedes-Benz/Evobus simply deliver what is ordered. The base Euro V engine combined with the standard 4-speed automatic gearbox is adequate for low-speed urban duties on a flat topography but more demanding applications require a stronger powertrain or driveline and these are most certainly available as optional extras.
