So, what can you expect from these new rides? They’re designed to be more spacious—3.5% longer for extra legroom and 5.6% taller for more headroom. Plus, the windshield is 9.5% wider for better visibility, making those trips safer.

But wait, there’s more! These new models are packed with cool features like comfy interiors, sleek Scandinavian designs, and 20% more luggage space. Safety is a priority too; the buses come with an efficient fire alarm system with water nozzles ready for emergencies. Plus, better visibility for drivers helps keep pedestrians safe.
