Dawson Group Bus & Coach is a provider of rental, hire, and lease coaches in the UK with more than 2,000 vehicles in its fleet. Its diverse client base covers local authorities and major coach operators alike.
The 12.9m coach is one of the first i6 models featuring revamped styling to bring the design in line with the rest of the Irizar range.
PSVAR provision has been specified on the i6, ensuring versatility on the second life of the vehicle.
Passenger conveniences include magazine holders and seatback tables. Multi-position footrests have been included for comfort and USB charging points have been fitted to each pair of seats. Other passenger amenities include a toilet located in the central stairwell and a drinks machine.
Additionally, three-point seat belts have also been specified for the safety of the 49 passengers onboard.
The latest addition to the fleet is powered by a DAF MX11 270kw, OBD-E euro 6 engine, with an output of 367hp, driving through ZF’s Ecolife Coachline enhancing the driveline.
Irizar UK has confirmed that an additional four Irizar Integral i6 coaches will be added to the Dawson Bus & Coach portfolio, with two coaches expected to arrive later this year and an additional two arriving in late 2025.
