www.chinabuses.org: Iveco Bus, among the leading bus and coach manufacturers in Europe, is steadily progressing with the delivery of Euro VI Crossway LE (Low Entry) intercity buses to the Belgian Flemish transport operator.

IVECO Bus Continues Record Intercity Bus Delivery to De Lijn


CNH Industrial is expanding its presence in Belgium at a rapid pace, its latest development being in the field of collective passenger transport. To date, close to 50 Iveco Bus vehicles have been delivered to the Belgian Flemish transport operator De Lijn since the brand won a record tender in 2013. De Lijn currently has a running fleet of more than 2,300 buses, transporting an estimated 500 million passengers each year across more than 225 million kilometres.


The terms of the tender define the total supply of 160 Crossway LE (Low Entry) intercity buses for circulation throughout the interurban network of Flanders. Completed buses have been shipped to De Lijn depots in the Antwerp area. The remaining vehicles are expected to arrive by the end of 2014. All 160 units are manufactured at the Iveco Bus production facility in Vysoke Mýto, Czech Republic. These are then sent to one of two Iveco Bus dealers in Belgium (Gregoor Trucks in Herentals and Belgian Bus Repair in Tildonk), where they are prepared by specialised personnel for delivery and thorough inspection by De Lijn.
