NovaBus Artic Prototype: Rear Doors won't close.

[88jadu]

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.

[MSWindows30]

@MSWindows30 , I meant bus manufacturer.

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.

I wish Chicago would'be gotten these instead of New Flyers D60LFs

[Streetcar1743]

That sounds like defective chip on the door.

[jamin108]

[weezywade]

[newflyer800]

Yeah, this bus was bought by MTANYC

[AEMoreira81]

That bus is now down here in New York City---and had problems one day with the FRONT door. But it has been doing well here.

[SaidHead]

HSR, if you're listening, do NOT buy this!!!

[gathy222]

A lot of problems on this one...

[beefbrisket168]

i have never seen that bus for STO. all i see are nova bus 40LFS and MCI buses

[newflyer800]

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.

[Autobus08]

Is it me or there's one pole that is broken from the seat.

[newflyer800]

Yup, that pole is broken.

62 Feet Long Artic Bus???? Well I have never heard of the Novabus growing 2 Inches more.

[newflyer800]

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.
