The clean-diesel Novabuses was recently delivered to Honolulu, Hawaii and I liked it! The only problem that these buses had was that it didn't meed the disability requirements. It's now fixed. In additional, the new Honolulu buses are intelligent vehicles. They have a GPS system that tells you what location the bus is and have first-class like seats from an aircraft.
Only 1 was in service from July 25 - August 15 2008.
They tested this bus out to see if they would purchase it, but it kept breaking down. I also have pictures of this bus with the STO logo on it, so you probably missed this bus.
The doors took forever to close!

Is this me or that prototype buses rims are already dirty? btw, the other manufacturer called New Flyer. It's even more reliable than this Novabus.

62 Feet Long Artic Bus???? Well I have never heard of the Novabus growing 2 Inches more.
richardflint07 3 years ago
Well that's NovaBus. The artic reminded me of a D60LF, the way they had the seats set up. Lots of defects on the prototype.
