Anul acesta la Busworld Europe 2019, Otokar va expune 3 autobuze din gama Kent, si anume e-Kent C, Kent C CNG cat si noul Kent U LE.

Remarc o chestie foarte interesanta, anume ca barele de la usile autobuzului sunt curbate, asa cum consider ca ar trebui sa aiba toate modelele, indiferent de marca, Pur si simplu, mi se pare ca o forma curbata e mai usor de urmat cu mana decat una dreapta. Nu mai spun de faptul ca barele acelea nu sunt "coctzate" la jumatatea usii ci sunt in prima treime aproximativ. E bine totusi ca invata din greselile trecutului!

Depinde de ce cere beneficiarul, ca aia cu bara dreapta e pentru ca asa a dorit PMB.

Otokar and IVECO BUS sign production agreement

Turkey's pioneer bus manufacturer Otokar Otomotiv ve Savunma Sanayi A.Ş. (IST: OTKAR) signed an agreement on February 25, 2020 with IVECO BUS, a global manufacturer of buses and coaches and a brand of CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI / MI: CNHI) to locally manufacture products under the IVECO BUS brand at its facilities in Sakarya, Turkey.

This contractual partnership covers existing models in the IVECO BUS portfolio for international distribution, as well as the production of a model specifically catered for markets in Eastern Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. The models will be powered by engines from its sister brand FPT Industrial, the first of which are expected to be produced within 2021.

Through this agreement, IVECO BUS seeks to expand its manufacturing capabilities, and confirms that it is maintaining all regular activities at its existing manufacturing sites where its current and future model generations will continue to be designed and manufactured.

"We are delighted to be introducing the production of IVECO BUS models at our Sakarya plant, in addition to Otokar branded buses. It is with great pride that Otokar's technology, engineering and manufacturing capabilities are recognized by this renowned brand in the mass passenger transport sector," said Serdar Görgüç, Otokar General Manager. "Utilizing our existing facilities to manufacture IVECO BUS models will enable our plant to operate even more efficiently and effectively. While we will continue to market our buses and expand globally, we consider this manufacturing and supply agreement to be a very important and strategic first step in a long-term cooperation."

"We are very excited to embark on this new partnership, which paves the way for many opportunities in our businesses," said Sylvain Blaise, Head of the Global Bus Division at CNH Industrial. "Thanks to this cooperation we will be able to increase our manufacturing capabilities in order to respond to current and future market demand to support our continued growth, as well as giving us the opportunity to work jointly on future portfolio expansion. With close to 60 years of experience, Otokar's well-regarded expertise in bus manufacturing and engineering, together with IVECO BUS's service network and connected services, which are key pillars of the IVECO DNA, ensure that our customers will continue to receive industry-leading sustainable transport solutions with best in class performance, quality and Total Cost of Ownership. Furthermore, this partnership will benefit from future powertrain technologies under development at FPT Industrial."
