                                                        The heart of the "Scolabus 24" is its engine and there is
                                                        no bigger heart than the Iveco tector engine.
                                                        Designed to meet all the latest noise and emission
                                                        legislation, the fundamentals of the power unit will
                                                        ensure that it remains in profitable operation for years to
                                                        come.
                                                        The "Scolabus 24" shares the engine with the Iveco
                                                        Cargo, UK's biggest selling medium weight truck.
                                                        Consequently, the engine is well known to service
                                                        technicians up and down the country and support is
                                                        never more than a phone call away.
The deep, one piece block with its parent bore construction, turbocharged and intercooled layout,
makes the tector an impressively quiet unit - an ideal characteristic for a schoolbus engine.

                                                        The management of the many engine functions is in the
                                                        hands of the latest electronic control unit. This talks to
                                                        the other control units on the vehicle via a CAN bus
                                                        network thereby ensuring that maximum operating
                                                        efficiency is achieved at all times. This is true, not only
                                                        when the vehicle is on the road but also when

                                                        allied to a wide, usable torque curve making the
