| ANNOTATIONS:*1 |
Chassis weight shown is subject to 3.5% variation to allow for production tolerances. Chassis weight includes the weight of oill, fuel, coolant and spare tire carrier and bracket but excludes spare tire and disc wheel and standard tool set. |
| *2 |
Max. G.V.W. shown is applied to all buses operated at a cruising speed under 100km/h (62.1mph). In the case of a crusing speed over 100km/h (62.1 mph), Max. G.V.W. should be reduced by 2% to 7% from indicated figure according to E.T.R.O. (The European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation) recommendation. |
