Update Speculation thread

Updated my post.
Edit.
Also you don't just sit on that kind of bus if you look at the real life bus photo you see little straps hanging. You grab those to hold on while you stand.

 

I see. And... Well, ok.

All new busses in Europe must be equipped for transport of disabled people - flat floor, harnesses for wheelchairs in specific areas of the bus and ejectable access ramps at the very least - and still that seat layout is fairly uncommon over here. Subway trains and cable cars, on the other hand, usually have seats organized like that.

Anyway, this is very off-topic now. I agree it's likely a bus.

 

Interior for what is shown looks finished for the most part. I believe in the next version it will be released. I hope. Also, i found a classic car wheel model with a different name (looks like a car name rather than a wheel brand). Anyone else spotted this one?

 

Lemme look ingame, brb

 

look at this

 

It really depends on the city, and what the particular bus is being used for.

This is a 1996-2001 New Flyer Standard Low-Floor Diesel, common to many cities across the U.S. and Canada:


That's the interior looking towards the back of the bus, with optional horrendous mid-nineties fabric. Note the seats right up front face sideways to allow easier access for the elderly, disabled, pregnant, or those with very young children. Those two seats with the yellow signs on the bottom fold down when wheelchair users aren't present. Note also the side-facing seats across from the rear exit door. This is the kind of bus that handles large crowds and frequent stops, and is usually found along dense urban routes.



It's often used in conjunction with something like this - the 1989-2008 Orion V Coach. This is a high-floor bus (note the stairs inside the door) mainly used for longer, faster routes (like connecting the suburbs to the city). Most, if not all of the seats face forward in this bus, partly because the only entrance/exit is at the front.



It's not uncommon for bus manufacturers to produce both a "high floor" and "low floor" versions of a particular bus, along with several different available lengths. This is the low floor version of the Orion V, which requires a different floor pan (and a set of inverted portal axles to accommodate it) and a separate bodystyle with the rear doors.

I'm guessing that we're getting a bus from this era based solely on the shape of the seats (they really do look a lot like tamer versions of the New Flyer), but since the general design of bus interiors haven't changed much other than the patterns used since about, oh, 1985, it's hard to say.​

Already talked about it. Most of us have come to the conclusion that it is a bus.

 

Ah... but note that he's edited it so that everybody sits fighter-jet style along a single row of seats.

 

i copyed the side and fliped it

 

Omfg a bus? That looks neato :O

 

finally, a new vehicle. it's been about year since the last one.

 

I'm wondering if "not a rocket" is a reference to Toronto's Rocket Busses?

 

I want to see the entire bus, im too hyped to go to sleep now for the next update even though it might be quite some time away

 

The bus will likely be a new manufacturer. I doubt it will be a Gavril, Bruckell or Solaid. It's probably not Japanese either. It could be European, and likely be an ETK, or a new manufacturer that we haven't seen yet.

 

I think Gavril works but they need a new brand. Gavril have tones of vehicles already sooooo...

 

I wonder if the bus will have hydraulic suspension so it can lower on stop.

 

THAT WOULD BE COOL! Also it needs to have loads of paint jobs

 

Airbags?
