BRAND NEW Wrightbus streetlite

Arriva Medway's Wrightbus Streetlite.

These are brand new. I spent a long time riding up and down the 116 route tying to get this video as the buses were going slowly because it was the first time most of the drivers had driven this type of bus.

These buses have voith gearbox but it only seemed to have 3 gears, gear 2 was at 16 mph and gear 3 was at 33 mph. (filming it all the way to gear 3 was hard). Also it didn't change gear without loosing acceleration like a proper voith as on the B7TLs.

This is the first youtube video of an Arriva Streetlite (with arriva fixtures and livery).

Sounds like an Enviro 200

The gear changes sound dodgy, and the engine sounds very strained

These seats look far more convenient than our ones in the brand new Solaris Urbino buses delivered to our area here in Germany.
