Youngman is a leading bus manufacturer from Jinhua, Zhejiang province; it specializes in producing high quality Neoplan-design buses, under special license from the German luxury bus brand. Some of the advance features of Youngman’s buses include a monocoque body structure and the Neoplan front independent axle.
The buses to be exported to Israel will be equipped with an ultra strong Cummins 11L, Euro 5, engine with 420hp, ZF drive axle, ZF EcoLife automatic transmission and ESC system. Israel on-road licensing regulations are known to be among the strictest in the world, with high barriers for emission and safety. Youngman is expected to meet these standards in the coming year.
The first model to be imported to Israel is a Neoplan model, City-Liner, 12 meters luxury coach. It is expected to land in Israel around the middle of this year with commercial orders soon to follow. In addition, Feldman Ltd is arranging to import from Youngman city buses, including 18 meter articulated model, together with intercity and midi buses.
Youngman is expected to be the second Chinese leading bus manufacturer to be imported to Israel, following Yutong. The latter’s coach arrived to Israel at the end of January and is offered to customer for 175,000 Euros, which is similar to the price for Youngman’s City-Liner coach in Israel.
