New bus, presumably demo, spotted in Singapore with Lush Green livery and SG<3BUS logo on the side. Either Wright StreetDeck or Eclipse Gemini 3 body, 3 axles, Alcoa rims. Tag axle setup. SG<3BUS logo on the side. According to video, was headed for BRBP.
What now honestly
Now here's the million dollar qn.. does it still retain SBST's shitty interior and fittings?
And I think this is possibly either the Euro 6 B8L, or the Wrightbus integral..

Replacing B9TL ...
LECIP EDS
very similar to the London new Buses that was shipped here to promote something.
Time for the change. It's good to see a Wright 3 since Wright 2 introduced in SG roads 7 years ago.
Should be B8L with Wright Eclipse Gemini 3 (facelift) body, and not StreetDeck
T
Should just be a trial and not a mass purchase as the current volvo b9tl still got another 8-9 years to go before they retire ( Batch 1 ) so maybe LTA will only purchase a few units only since we got almost more than a 1000 B9tl in SG + Man A95 + Enviro 500 . Maybe they (LTA) will buy more to replace out going Super Olympians or Not .
Volvo B8L SPECS
Volvo D8k Euro 6 engine
In-line 6 , twin turbocharged , 7.7L Common rail injection ,
280Bhp(1050Nm) / 320bhp(1200nm) / 350bhp (1400nm)
Which horsepower output you all think LTA-Sbs will choose ?
I think it's the 320bhp one.
No need to think so much,LTA will definitely lease to SBST & SMRT to replace those B10TL/Tridents and the remaining O405Gs.
replacing kub will be next. new DD look like a 3 door bus with centre wide like MAN unless i see wrongly on the video

Unless its 12.8m else it's pointless to have 3 doors 12m DD
Bus is supposed to be in BRBP right?
Most probably LTA might be buying to replace O405Gs,VSOs & Tridents and also for fleet expansion
Supposedly got another unit, for GA

If GAG takes over one of the SMRT contracts they'll have to take SMRT-spec vehicles too.

When KUBs go, the Scania brand is as good as history. LTA not keen on further business ties with them.
