SBS Transit will introduce new single decker

I am woundering why she does not want to get new single decker from Volvo since most of her single decker buses are from Volvo. It will be much easlier for maintenance.

But still I am happy to see her buying new single decker buses. It is because those single decker buses introduced in the early 90s are alraedy reached the age of retirement despite those refurbishment works were done few years ago.

Wow... Scania as well, looks like ComfortDelgro is in favour of Scania at the moment... I thought it was Australia that is getting Scania, looks like its a company policy.

Driven one of their few months old Scania L94UB, their 5L engine isn't bad at all. When I travelled on them as passenger, I thought they were sluggish, it is more like the drivers didn't floor it hard. I tried to kick it down yesterday, and it goes really well!

Nonetheless, let me add a photo to support what I just talked about

新世冠極可能用K230UB(車陣)配ZF6HP502C波箱，而車身可能用Volgren/Custom Coach。

用世冠是方便日常駛用及保養，車廠唔需要加入尿素的設備。

因為K230UB是用EGR

It might be Volgren body, because, SBS Transit's sister company Westbus is using Volgren body too..

其實SBS的 Scania N113、Benz O405 及 Volvo B10M 也應該是到了要退役的時期，所以用1000輛新巴士，便差不多代替了部分 Scania N113、Benz O405 及 Volvo B10M 了。
