15.06.2007 von admin


Spacious interior with an upmarket ambience

[BLOCK The interior of the three-axle Cityliner is just as convincing as the successful proportions of its bodywork. Thanks to the high, freely suspended luggage racks and the ceilings, which are vaulted upwards towards the side windows, the impression created in the passenger compartment is extremely generous, and owing to the high-quality material and the smooth line, superbll elegant. The 12.99 metre three-axle version of the Cityliner HDC which has now been presented can accommodate between 50 (4-star version with seats above the toilet) and 55 passengers (3-star version with seats above the toilet ). The luggage compartment of the three-axle Cityliner HDC has a capacity of 10.3 cubic metres and it is easily accessible via three panels on the left-hand side and two panels on the right-hand side (incl. the driver’s bunk). Additional stowage space is provided above the wheelhouses accessible from outside and by the space for special uses behind the driver.

In the new NEOPLAN Cityliner HDC an agreeable travelling atmosphere is ensured by a system for hot countries with a cooling output of 35 kW installed in the traditional way at the rear as well as by windows which are more strongly tinted than in the predecessor version. A weight-saving roof-mounted air conditioner with 30 kW is available as an alternative and results in an overall height of 3.68 m. End-to-end sidewall convectors guarantee a uniform temperature when the heater is in operation.

The design of the bodywork combines tried-and-tested all-round spar technology with state-of-the-art materials and production methods. At the intersections under particular stress between the underbody, floor and roof the all-round spars are produced using in a special inner tube technology without weld seams and are additionally stabilised with stable gusset plates. This gives the new Cityliner HDC maximum rigidity and robustness. At the same time this type of design effectively suppresses vibrations and the transmission of noise in the body.[/BLOCK]
Powerful drive with the latest MAN PUREdiesel technology
The new NEOPLAN Cityliner HDC is powered by the 400 or 440 hp in-line six-cylinder turbodiesel MAN D 2066 LOH 03/04 Common Rail with a capacity of 10.5 litres. The 480 hp MAN D 2676 LOH 02 CR with a capacity of 12.4 litres, which also celebrated its première at the IAA in 2006, is available on request. Both engines operate with the latest MAN PUREdiesel technology which still also runs without the work-intensive and complicated use of urea. With the patented MAN PM-KAT® the coach even has an open particulate filter as a standard feature. The engines are currently offered for the Euro 4 standard, but, from the end of 2008 Euro 5 engines without extra additives will also be available with a basic technology which is already available today in MAN city buses.

Robust, well-matched six-speed manual gearboxes are standard features. The comfortable cable shifting is pneumatically assisted. If desired the automated twelve-speed manual gearbox MAN TipMatic offers the driver and his passengers the ultimate comfort. The D26 engine with 480 hp is exclusively available with the MAN TipMatic gearbox which has also been highly praised owing to its sensitive manoeuvring mode and the moving-off aid EasyStart.
