The operator had decided to incorporate some aesthetic features of the Irizar “ie tram” BRT model, generating a distinctive vehicle that maximises comfort, accessibility and safety. These features include additional windows located underneath the normal windows on each side, a wooden floor layout which make a contrast to the metallic seats, and a partially transparent design of the articulated portals, among others. The 12-metre „ie bus“ model has 3 access doors, 26 seats (4 of which are PRM) and a wheelchair area. The 18-metre „ie bus“ has 4 doors, 32 seats (4 of which are PRM) and a wheelchair areaas well. The vehicles are equipped with Irizar lithium-ion batteries.
