Extension of established Community range will allow it to pursue bus orders, says Sales Director
EVM’s 25-passenger low-entry City Line made its debut at CBUK and it will allow the converter to actively pursue mainstream bus orders, says Sales Director Danny McGee.
The City Line has the same dimensions as the established Community low-entry minibus.
Both are based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and the Community has proved popular in the community transport sector. The City Line’s focus will be the bus world and it will exist alongside the Community.
“Results so far with the Community show that the Sprinter is capable of returning excellent fuel economy, and so the City Line will deliver a useful improvement over larger buses on routes where passenger figures are modest and budgets are under pressure,” says Mr McGee.
16 seated passengers are carried in the City Line, along with nine standees. EVM expects to announce a “significant” order for the City Line in the near future, and the minibuses are likely to be to a specification not hitherto seen on a low-entry Sprinter conversion.
EVM also displayed members of its minicoach range at CBUK, including a strikingly-liveried X-Clusive for repeat customer Anthony’s Travel of Runcorn.
