Fleet investment by White’s Coaches of St Albans has continued with the delivery of an Irizar i8 integral in unusual two-axle format, supplied by Irizar UK.
The 12.4m model has 36 i8 Comfort leather seats and it comes with a centre sunken toilet, drop-down tables, footrests and USB charging points. Bosch audio and visual entertainment systems are fitted and a centre servery has been installed by AD Coach Systems.
More commonly delivered as a three-axle model, the two-axle Irizar i8 integral for White’s is among the first to be supplied in the UK to that configuration. The new coach is “perfect for the company’s corporate and VIP clients,” Irizar UK notes.
Adds White’s Coaches Director Greg White: “White’s whole focus has always been, and will always be, to provide the very best experience we can to our clients, and this is clearly underlined with our decision to purchase the Irizar i8.
“We are delighted to continue our longstanding relationship with the Irizar team, and we knew that for this purchase, we had to choose Irizar and the i8. It is now recognised as the standout vehicle at the very top end of the market, which is exactly what we want for our clients.”
A DAF MX-11 engine developing 449bhp powers the new coach, driving through a ZF EcoLife automatic gearbox.
