新．倫敦雙層巴士 - 倫敦

A new bus for London

The New Bus for London is inspired by the much-loved Routemaster and will use
the latest green technology when it launches in 2012.

The New Bus for London will meet London Buses' requirements for vehicles in
public service in London, including high standards of accessibility, safety
and emissions abatement. In addition, it will be more durable, more fuel
efficient and better ventilated. The bus will incorporate a double-deck and a
platform at the rear near-side corner, so passengers will be able to get on
and off easily.

The Mayor unveiled the design for the New Bus for London in May 2010.


Design features

The New Bus for London has a pioneering, futuristic design that features:

*Extensive use of glass to highlight key features and produce a light and airy
feel inside the bus
*A glass 'swoop' at the rear and offside to pick out the two staircases
*An open platform at the rear, shared with the Routemaster of old, which can
be closed off at quiet times and which allows the reinstatement of a hop-on
hop-off service
*Three doors and two staircases for smoother, speedier boarding and access to
the upper deck.

這款可容納87名乘客的新車
將採用油電混合（Hybrid）的新引擎
減少排放40%的二氧化碳
並提高40%的效能

對於這款新車的目前感想
只覺得那弧度圓得很有形，蠻好看的
而車正面的斜邊造型塗裝也是一絕
很簡單的方法就讓車瞬間充滿未來感！
