English   New lengths, new heights, new dimensions
27.06.2014 von admin


Even with their shorter base frame and a height of 3.56 m, the new two-axle middle deckers are still capable of mastering every situation. That's because they are genuine Setra touring coaches that blend harmoniously into the existing product family while at the same time having a quite distinct character of there own.
Whether used as a shuttle, crewbus or for short weekend trips, i.e. on journeys with less luggage, they represent an alternative for all those bus operators who refuse to forgo the proven Setra standard of comfort.

The familiar inside standing height of 2.10 m is retained in the S 515 MD and S 516 MD, which also impress with their versatile seating variants and the option of a rear door. Both models are powered as standard by the OM 936. Boasting an output of 260 kW (354 hp) in both of the new models, the 7.7-litre six-cylinder in-line engine combines the necessary power with environment-friendly drive technology. As far as the interior appointments are concerned, the middle decker models are optionally available with all the familiar features from the HD variants of the ComfortClass 500.

For Hartmut Schick, Head of Daimler Buses, the Setra ComfortClass 500 has entered a new dimension with the latest vehicle models: "We are very proud that the four new touring coaches will add extra economically attractive model variants to our range of premium buses. With new heights and lengths, they too will keep down the overall operating costs of our customers."
