It's uncommon here in Winnipeg, where I live to see the Setra S417 buses like seen on the video above. However, during summer months, especially during the Folklorama, that's the only time I can see this kind of bus that are utilized by number of charter companies from different parts of Canada and the neighbouring US.
Wait a min, am I reading correct, did you just say they are putting DD15 in the 2010 model of Setra? If so, Setra buses will be the fastest buses on the road!
Yes, in 2010 only Daimler Chrysler trucks and buses will be powered with Detroit Diesel engines, and Setra is definitely apart of the Daimler Chrysler Division. But at the same time I wish the MCI Coaches could have been DD15 powered, it would have been perfect for them too
The first time I saw a Setra S417, I thought it was one of the most beautyful thing ever put on wheels. The bus I saw was a brand new Sun Diego ( yes I got it right Sun Diego Tours not San Diego)bus. I am suprize to see a transit company is using a S417, most transit company use MCI D modles if they need a coach. The S417 seem to pretty to do transit work. Thats like having a MCI E modle doing transit work.

Yeah I cant find much info. The Setra site is sort of tough for me to navigate.
