  Couldn't see, but denfinitely SMRT Citaro... Should be already registered, didn't look bling bling like the SBST Citaros... Only saw the rear, but couldn't see rego plate...

  Don't have to worry. There's at least 40+ new SBST Citaros still parked in the Sembawang Wharves port as of yesterday. Regoless & without company logos but once again, with the SBST basic livery already sprayed.

  The paintjob is done in their assembly HQ in Germany after they have assembled the bus... Thereafter, the staffs will drive the Citaros to Mannheim parking area near the streets before driven to port for shipment...

  Yeah I know this. I was trying to imply that the Citaros parked in the port here in SG already have the basic livery but just no company logos, instead of ending up in some basic white coat of paint. haha.

  how come sbst citaros are assembled complete in Germany and not like traditionally the chassis were imported and the bodywork built locally or Msia to save costs? this citaro order is huge also and wouldnt it cost a lot to ship here as complete built up units? but i am very pleased with the good workmanship..

  Because theyre market as CBU and integral bodied..They never licensed any body building co for their Citaro. As from February any vehicle with force induction(Turbocharged or Supercharged) required to declare the Turbo/SC in their vehicle data..earlier batches also turbo only they never stated else how a 6340cc engine can produce 282hp/1120nm which is equilavent to norma aspirated 11000cc engine?

  Its normal... Just like MAN heading back to STK for checks, Citaros or any vehicles also need to head back to the dealer for checks...

  Saw before SMB181X itside for maintenance last yr... They will bear trade plate as well...
