The Bus Division Range of Irisbus
The bus market is very exacting across the whole of the British Isles.
With the pressure on reducing road congestion, every effort is being made to entice the
travelling public away from their motorcars and into public transport.
All customers demand, and have every right to expect, first class service in terms of timing and
reliability with buses that provide the ultimate in ease of access, comfort and a travel experience
equal to their expectations.
Irisbus recognise these aspirations and have used their wealth of knowledge and skill in solving
passenger transport problems worldwide to bring to the market three individual bus products.
Each one brings with it benefits and an ability to provide a solution to many of the issues facing
the operator today.
The Irisbus Agora Line is a
purpose-designed city bus
featuring the latest technology
both in the product and its
manufacture. It will be at home
both in city centres and suburban
environments where all
passengers expect to complete
their journey both quickly and in
comfort.
The chassis is built at the Irisbus
plant at Annonay but finished,
glazed and interior trimmed by
Optare. This has allowed Irisbus
to combine their worldwide
manufacturing expertise with the
local market knowledge offered
by Optare. The result is a bus that
precisely meets the operational
demands of the UK market.
An overall length of 12 metres safely accommodates up to 44 seated passengers plus
32 standees, dependent on layout.
An unobstructed floor, well positioned handrails and an aisle width of 450 mm makes
movement through the saloon easy and safe.
Performance is assured by the Iveco Cursor engine, a fully electronic unit
featuring the latest technology and providing 245 horsepower.
