We have a brand new facelift 517 HD, compared it to our similar 517 HD from 2017. Only thing I don't like with the new facelift is the electrical handbrake, and possibly the interface of the infotainment system, but otherwise a great improvement. One thing I don't like with Setra, is that the highbeams feel like lowbeams, and it unfortunately doesn't matter what model it is. It's always the same on that front.
@@bussmagasinet1 probably just because I'm not 100 used to it yet. Only driven our new bus a few times, and basically only using "normal" handbrake otherwise so. And regarding the extra head lights, we are going to get that, but my point is that it shouldn't be like that on a new bus. It should be standard with great lights. At least other manufacturers have way better lightning solutions imo.
Somewhere along the coast, seaside view sea breeze for the next Setra VDA6 standard bus? Also legit had no idea there's a third wiper up top. Nice to hear tom's driving perspective as well.
Det ønsker vi og! Men, ikke lett å få det til. Vi er heller høyst privilegerte at Daimler tok seg tid til å komme til oss for å vise frem bussen helt fra Tyskland
@@bussmagasinet1 That's something else... =) Great that at least norwegian invests in quality. I wonder why your eastern neighbors are so fond of Scania. Is it somehow particularly good for the driver? Travel comfort in them is at least weak. MAN and Setra are comfortable for passengers.

So is that transmission fully automatic like an ALLISON? Those automated manuals are rough and slow. Dummy’s huh? You could have just asked some FORD or BOEING employees to ride along instead. 🤣Must take a while to study the instrument panel. Every rental car is different so by the time I have to return it, I still haven’t completely figured it out. Looks like a nice coach.
Setra a good manufacturer of course, but a coach not without miner faults. Lack of torque, need to drive manually rather than auto, must use lights manually. Diesel power much better than the trend to electric that we have today.
Vår nye hoppstjerne! 😁
Flott video Busssmagasinet🙂
Hahahahaha 😁😁😁😁 Takker!

So, you don’t like the electronic hand brake? That’s interesting! You have to attach extra head lamps. Then you get the right amount of light
Where made now new coaches Setra ?

Great video!!!
Glad to hear 😁

You should go to Hønefoss, enjoyed my time doing exchange studies. Would be happy to see you there!
😁😁
Mer av slike videoer ❤

Nice bus!
Glad to hear!
@@bussmagasinet1 You are welcome! 🙂
In the UK that fuel consumption isn't that great - I make that about 9.6mpg!
Not bad!
You should drive buss to Tromssa. =)
Take a look at our MAN video.

"Retro mirrors" 😁

Sååå bra test! Men synd att Mercedes har dumpat V8:an…
Åååå! Det hadde vært fantastisk med V8 i denne!!!
Setra is a good

Brand new… Well 27500km on the clock 😉
Hehe! Well. Almost, then! 😂
I don't like the new facelift. I much prefer driving my 2020 Tourismo. Also causes a lot fewer problems.
Setra no longer delivers the usual quality.
That’s sad to hear
Hhh.. usual quality 🤔..
Do you think new Mercedes coaches still have usual quality ?
WANN BRINGT SETRA DIE NEUE BAUREIHE 600 AUF DEN MARKT BITTE IN SCHRIFTLICHER FORM
You have to ask Daimler Buses
You should test Hess buses once
We would love that!
komm til Selje eller Nordfjordeid neste gang 😉
Planen var å kjøre denne bussen til Nordfjord, men tiden ble for knapp

Nope, it is automated. It doesn't need to be faster than it is 😅
It’s a automated manual trans. Comfortable and nice gear shifts. Not like Allison at alk

I always drive the transmission manual while driving on the road. I let the automatic do start and stop. The rest I do manually
