It's actually an NL 323 F.

Engine is a MAN D 2066 LUH which is a 10.5-litre, horizontal 6-cylinder, twin-turbocharged and intercooled engine with Exhaust Gas Recirculation meeting Euro 5 and EEV emissions standards. Power rating is 235kW (320hp) at 1900rpm and the torque rating is 1600Nm from 1000rpm to 1400rpm. This is a very high performance engine for a rigid city bus!

Wow finally NL320 sia..Sounds lik the ones commonly found in Germany and other countries.At least its good nw tat got another MAN since 8031J is gone..And the SMRT fleet seems to b getting more interesting.And its even more good to hear tat the bus is fully low floor !! :))

Lee Teuk SG

It's a full low floor bus with a powerful engine, much powerful than the OC

Merczrox SG

Haha anyway tis type of very powerful bus will suit SMRT very well cuz they love to speed. :P

TIB1010Y SG

I will welcome the Citaro rather tat the MAN bus but anyway i will still welcome it soon

Lee Teuk SG

Yeah! SMRT loves high performance buses! My dad told me the bus uses outward sliding doors. Cool!

I was at STK this morning, saw the staff doing checks on the new bus..the door is very special, it slide outwards, like the MRT trains.never seen a public bus use this kind of outward sliding doors before.also the bus is very handsome looking.really a nice looking bus..

Lee Teuk SG

i believe it is the 1st public bus which uses outward sliding doors.

TIB1234T SG

SMRT gonna aim everything first...

Junyang700 SG

i believe it is the 1st public bus which uses outward swinging sliding doors.

Habit bendies already have outward swinging sliding doors for its back doors.

tintinspartan SG

The bus is longer than a standard 12 m bus just to tell you plainly. Around 12.5 - 13 metres. Info given by my godfather.

TIB1234T SG

Habit bendies already have outward swinging sliding doors for its back doors.

But i thought Habits ones are those that swing outwards rather than like MRT kinds, sliding type? Most of the KMB KUBs are using the sliding doors instead of swinging.

Two videos from youtube to show how sliding plug doors works,

This PDF will tell you a bit of the specifications: http://www.man-mn.com/mn-prod-neu/man2/master/datapool/mediapool/700/Chassis_Brosch_2010_e_101215.pdf

Go to page 9/13! The picture seems to suggest that it is entirely low floor. It can be powered by Euro 4/5/EEV engines or a CNG engine - from 270 hp to 320 hp.

this bus is definitely best for sv858

SBS7338G SG

Actually I dont mind if it goes to 858 but based on the recent demos by SMRT, all are not WAB svc.

sbst275 SG

Wa, like our Singapore's road got a lot of steep roads to overcome.

sbst275 SG
