Eeeeeeeeeeee Chiina bus, how to trust one?

Don't judge book by cover. I riden on a Higer before and seen up close and personal with a Yutong bus. Basically, I am seeing more Higers operated by private companies and more Yutongs being built for various companies from school bus to tour bus companies

Basic Information on Chinese buses:

Zhengzhou Yutong is the largest bus manfacturer in China.

King Long has products under several brands:
Xiamen King Long produces the King Long and Golden Dragon marques
Suzhou King Long produces under the King Long and Higer marques.

Many Chinese bus manufacturers have tie ups with other bus manufacturers around the world. Suzhou King Long has the Higer A90 integral bus (which is basically a K380EB 4X2N1 chassis with Higer bodywork), Ankai has a collaboration with Setra and Xiamen King Long has a collaboration with Alexander Dennis.

Ride expriences:

The Yutong I got in Hong ong was nice, very nice, suspension was a air suspension, which made the ride comfortable.

However, the King Long XMQ6116G I took in neighbouring Shenzhen is crap, whenever the driver changes gear, you can hear the creating a grinding sound.

I heard that some Neoplan buses uses Scania engines. Is that true?

Nope. Neoplan uses Cummins and MAN engines.

Btw, i've seen King Long website whereby it states that the customer can also choose a japanese engine to be fitted, instead of Cummins.

But afterall I think SBST will never buy any China made buses.

never is a strong word to use.

if in the near future inflation really does blow up, then buying EU buses would not be a feasible idea and we might have to turn to china made buses or asian ones for that matter.

Be surprised. The KUB engine is made in china liaoz, maybe next time the whole bus is china one.

Bro..

U still living in the 80s ??

Theres actually alot of things out there which are produce in China and you are using it. Just because is from china and you have the mindset that its a inferior good ? Then i must you are wrong. Take a ride on a few of them and i can tell u that things have changed. They are not like what u think..

At least, i can say that my experience with a King Long had left me a much better experience with compared to the KUBs.

i believe either SBS or SMRT will buy 1 such bus for demo, as long as its WAB

MS SG

For you info, China buses basically have a continental chassis components like ZF, Wabco, Knorr Bremse while the cabin is China made and branded with a Chinese brand. And they are getting extremely popular in South East Asia.

I saw a few King Long buses around esplanade in march. IMO, i think that the interior looks nice, with light brown seats

Only downside is that i find the engine roars too loud =P
