School Coaster
As a professional vehicle that flawlessly merges 'safety protection' and 'multi-scenario practicality', the School Bus Coaster is engineered with rigorous precision, ensuring dual protection for both student journeys and commercial commuting. At its core, the vehicle is powered by the robust Iveco SOFIM8140.43S6 engine, delivering an impressive output power of 95KW and a peak torque of 300NM. Paired with diesel fuel, it promises not only formidable power but also superior fuel efficiency, effortlessly catering to daily passenger transport needs. The vehicle can reach a top speed of 120km/h, yet adheres to a prudent speed limit of 80km/h, aligning with school bus safety standards. With a maximum gross vehicle mass of 6900kg (2500kg at the front / 4500kg at the rear) and a seating configuration of 26+1, it assures ample load capacity while maintaining comfortable space for educators and pupils. Ideal for short-distance pick-ups, drop-offs, or medium-range commuting, this bus is perfectly equipped for group travel.
The School Bus Coaster excels in adapting to challenging road conditions. With a climbing gradient capability of ≥25%, it can easily tackle mountainous terrains and slopes, ensuring smooth travel even on suburban roads with frequent inclines. The minimum ground clearance of >200mm prevents chassis collisions during travel and enhances passage on complicated roads. Engineered with the engine on the front axle and bolstered by the Iveco large-bore front axle (identical to 6705), rear axle, and a power-efficient speed ratio design of 4.18, it delivers outstanding power transmission and significantly enhanced driving stability.
Prioritizing eco-friendliness and safety features, the vehicle adheres to high-standard specifications. It meets the stringent 2.8T Euro 5 emission standard, equipped with a urea system and diverse emission treatment technologies, including EGR+DOC+DPF+SCR, effectively reducing pollutant emissions and promoting green travel. The exhaust elbow is supplemented with an after-treatment device to further refine exhaust purification. The braking system features a front and rear disc design, combined with hydraulic brakes and vacuum assistance, offering rapid braking response and uniform force. Paired with the Kama 67 series ABS system, it prevents wheel lock-up during urgent braking, heightening safety. A central brake drum cable handbrake and drive motor auxiliary braking provide dual braking assurance, establishing a steadfast safety framework for the travel needs of teachers and students.
The vehicle's body and interior design intricately balance durability and comfort. The body framework and skin utilize King Long materials known for high strength and impact resistance, ensuring reliable protection for occupants during accidental collisions. The straight chassis frame enhances the vehicle's load and torsion resistance, extending its lifespan. Inside, the minibus-style instrument panel and layout are clear and user-friendly, enabling drivers to monitor vehicle status effortlessly. Coupled with front torsion bar suspension and rear multi-leaf spring (IVEC0 2913010-670X), alongside the Iveco stabilizer bar, the suspension system effectively absorbs road irregularities, boosting passenger comfort and minimizing the bumpy feel. Bumpy for students during the ride.
Moreover, the vehicle exhibits meticulous attention to detail in its features. A substantial 90L fuel tank minimizes refueling frequency, enhancing operational efficiency. The 215/75R17.5 tires, paired with steel wheel covers, offer durability and aesthetic appeal. The 140AH maintenance-free battery and 200A generator secure the seamless functioning of the vehicle's electrical system. The rack-and-pinion hydraulic power steering system provides ease and flexibility, reducing the driver's workload. Even on prolonged journeys, drivers remain comfortable and at ease, thoroughly meeting the demanding operational needs of school buses.
