  I used to think China-made buses were ok.

  Until I saw the designated life-span and materials used. Just one word passed my mind: RUBBISH

  Not to mention that various major components weren't exactly developed there anyway.

  But for those who think China can't reinvent itself, think of the Japanese experience post-war.

  Think they need at least another 3-4 years,For now most private operators prefer China buses with Cummins or Scania engines

  SMRT official page say SMRT only buy highest quality bus like MAN and Mercedes most comfortable~ Unlike KUB again proven SMRT better than SBST~ China bus vibration and jerking so creepy~

  much agree + vibrasive as well + 1st class lousy suspension not a good comfort & overall receipe @ all !

  Genting Bhd also buys these junks unfortunately but at least theirs are the higher end 6-cylinder models with more of original Scania flavor from the 114 era. Also the engine fan related noise is extremely loud instrusive (loud even @ front axle region in high floor model !)...certainly not the best bus/coach chassis nowadays..it never was anyway.

  Good as in copying mainly  the looks aspects of the European marques but upon closer scutiny of the details..they simply do not measure up to the same overall standards. Like a Cherry, Geely car..from a distance looks somewhat impres

  sive but take a ride see it closer then it becomes obvious the standard is inferior to the established premium  European brands. Of course i understand price not the same levels so that 'justifies' whatever the shortcomings ?

  I would hope SBST consider the new Euro IV Volvo B8RLE.SMRT should trial the new Hino Low entry buses with rating of Euro V like the causeway link ones.

  SBST will not buy expensive buses. SMRT buy expensive one. SMRT may not buy Volvo, prefer mixture of MAN models and Merc. If SMRT buy B12BLE can too.

  Nuff said SBST should buy another 150 units of Volvo B8RLEs

  SMRT should trial Scania citywide LE with 280hp ratings and buy 100 units if successful

  I've seen many people trip and fall on the bus because the drivers always speeds over very fast. We should have more competent drivers..

  I feel drivers should not floor the accelerate after picking up pax unless all are seated or moving from traffic lights

  Especially old pax, speaking of this, I will say that most SMRT will wait for pax to sit down first.

  SMRT should buy more Superlions and MANdys~ SMRT will be best if buy more MANdys can carry more people~
