  Dun confuse yourself A23 is Pre Euro 1,2,3 era old engine and chassis while A24 is low floor Euro IV and above.Likely it's either NG323 or NG363

  A23 is the one with MAN's integral bodywork. A24 is chassis only.

  Funny le,When I ask the purchasing dept there's no official orders on the 30 bendies but instead only orders of 12m buses from MAN

  Any news about man A24 bus? I think maybe the trial fail.The demonstrater bendy had been already stuck in STK for a long time. Maybe they did not even buy the buses.

  So all we should do is just wait for the man a24 bendy bus?

  It's the NG363F A24, not the A23 MAN "superlion" Gs that you referred to...

  200hp if the gross weight is much lesser than any 12m buses and have torque of more than 1000nm I dun see why that bus can't speed?

  200hp 1050nm 7000cc 15800kg vs 270hp 1200nm 19000kg 9000cc
