Volvo B10TL Super Olympian.
VO3X Batch 1. Air-con damn better than Wright...
Use to be VO2X. But for now, VO3X.
E500 B9TL (AVBE)
Volvo B9TL CDGE/WEG
By the way, Volvo will also be using Mercedes-Benz OM series engine as 2nd option for their new Wright Gemini 3 or even the NBfL... If possible, even the continuation of Gemini 2 will have MB engine also... :)

Volvo and Wright is not the same. Wright produces bodywork for bus chassis, and Volvo produces the chassis and engine. Wright seems to have a strong partnership with Volvo because most of their bodyworks are made specially for Volvo buses, and Volvo even display a Wright example of the B5TL and B8RLE together with MCV's example on their webpage. But Wright still produces bodyworks for MAN A22 (Wright Meridian), Scania K-series (Wright Solar) and DAF/VDL SB120/SB200 (Wright Electrocity and Wright Pulsar) currently.
I really hope to see the day when Volvo Buses construct some kind of '3-axle counterpart of B5TL' and fitted with Wright Eclipse Gemini 3 bodywork as well...
volvo wright, VO2x & VSO haha
to TS & "at the bed": why you guys like 3333X? just wondering
Unless the B5TL produce 330hp/1400nm then i see another underpower bus

Wright is moving towards a role of constructing fully integral buses on top of bodying for various chassis makers.
Their new StreetDeck would be their first integral 2axle DD for the non London market using a offset longitudinally mounted MB OM934 engine. Externally, it is to be equipped with a WEG3 body.

That should be the new B8TL which would be Euro6 ready.
