POWER IN MOTION

Power is transmitted through an Allison 3000 fully automatic gearbox 1
with integral retarder. With its five speeds and torque converter it is a
very simple unit to use. 2

Everything is taken care of by the electronic control unit. 4
This makes a direct contribution to safety as it frees the driver to
concentrate on the road conditions and ensure that the school children
in his charge arrive at their destination safely.

Obviously, no School Bus can be compromised by a braking system
that is anything less than superb. The Irisbus ‘Scolabus 25’ benefits from
years of development expertise by Iveco engineers.

The full air system benefits from both front and rear axles having
disc brakes including ABS and EBL.

Passenger comfort is assured by the Irisbus ‘Scolabus 25’ riding
easily on full air suspension for both axles. Not only does this isolate
the occupants from much of the worst of the road surfaces but it also
offers protection to body and chassis components thereby contributing
to reduced operating costs.

The strength of the ‘Scolabus 25 lies in its tough, ‘C’ section
chassis frame. Made from high tensile steel, it provides the integrity and
reassurance that is so fundamental to the peace of mind of operators
in this safety sensitive area.
