The advantages are obvious:
- Large brakes with 430-milimetre discs offer a higher safety potential;
- Standard coach tyres of class 295/80 R 22.5 (optional: 275/70 R 22.5);
- The chassis has more than sufficient reserves with regard to load and performance.
A further advantage is the safety equipment that VISEON offers in connection with the MAN chassis on the VISEON C10. The ESP stability programme will be available on the basic version from Autumn, as will cruise control and brake control. Further electronic drive assist programmes, such as lane guard system (LGS) with vibration alarm integrated in the driver's seat or the adaptive cruise control (ACC) are available on request – very unusual for the midibus class!
The drive:
powerful, economical and environmentally-friendly
VISEON has emphasised the environmental credentials of the bus as a means of transport by using a relatively low-volume and, thus, fuel-saving engine with extremely low CO2-and NOx emissions. The VISEON C10 has a 6.9-litre in-line six cylinder MAN D0836 LOH Euro 5 engine for an environmentally-friendly yet powerful drive. In addition to the lower fuel consumption, downsizing the drive chain leads to a substantial weight reduction of around 600 kilograms compared to a larger power train plus gears. The basic version engine provides 213 kW/290 hp and has a torque of 1,100 Nm at 1,500 min-1. Later on, VISEON will also offer the new midi in an even more powerful version with 240 kW/326 hp and a maximum torque of 1,250 newton metres. Both power trains also come with injection pressures of 1,800 bar thanks to modern common-rail technology, a cooled exhaust gas recirculation and an Oxikat in the Euro 5 version without using additional operating materials.
