@4:24 the ABC gentleman says it's a quiet Bus. Seriously, it's a really noisy Bus. Steering column shaking around, dash is cheap plastic making funny noises all the time, ceiling panels swing around at 70-80 kph and than there is the cage door....
In Victoria there's no articulated ones like them there except only they have the normal volgren Optimuses.but only two states has been found to have these articulates optimuses are W.a & qld.
Thomas, Ventura has only one B8RLEA: #1271, which just happens to be at Rosebud depot (in prime position to service the 788.) The rest of the Optimus artics with Ventura are Scania K360UAs. There is another lone Optimus-K360UA operating the Monash Uni Huntingdale shuttle for CDC Melbourne, and then you have a few more K360UAs coming into service in Ballarat.
They sort of did at one point; they had a collaboration with Hafilat in Abu Dhabi and there came to be a LHD CR228L on a B12BLE chassis that became an Ambulance bus.
Yes they are indeed! Especially those old 0405g’s man they were insane! Used to be a lot of them here in singapore but the remaining were decommissioned earlier this month they were powerful i mean very powerful even the MAN bendies too! Awesome voith on those aparrently rumors said that we were supposed to get euro 6 versions of the MAN bendies but cancelled due to our transport authorities preference to double decks so our old bendies were replaced by the enviro 500 and the MAN a95 Double deck. Only our first gen 0405g’s were replaced by bendies themselves the MAN bendies here😔 so sad
When you're from the UK & thought the B8RLEA Was fictional
B8RLEA's have been available to the Australian market for years so far with Transperth/PTA WA being the launch customer of the variant.

Nice Volvo/Volgren bus!
I sat in the driver seat of that bus
I've been one one and they sound like the MTA Buses
Do they have these buses in Victoria because I have been on the exact same bus on line 788 in the Mornington peninsula

@@EOAL6689 You REALLY need to get your facts straight. Victoria DOES have Optimus artics; several of them.

@@XTrapolis942M yeah I have been on one before
Did the Volvo manager say 16 or 60 litres per 100kms?
low 60s
Does Volgren produce LHD buses?
They sort of did at one point; they had a collaboration with Hafilat in Abu Dhabi and there came to be a LHD CR228L on a B12BLE chassis that became an Ambulance bus.
70 new buses for perth so rolling stock will commence in 2015 till at least 2019
Well their contract has been renewed until 2029 and the 3rd batch of these are also currently being delivered and now in service.
Bendy buses need more torque..MAN & Mercedes excel in this...

Lapstone Limousine blame the idiots that feel they need to attack the drivers just because they won't let them ride for free
