  • The new Stagecoach London Volvo BZLs for the Route 276 are slowly being delivered to Lea Interchange (LI). These are fantastic looking vehicles & I cannot wait to see them in service in the coming months.
    66032 (LF73DYB) is the one we focus on today with a breif look of the outside & inside of the vehicle. Let me know your thoughts!

      It seems like ev single deckers have back windows. Is the double decks that don’t usually. Even the double deck variant of this bus.

    Stagecoach new design outside of London uses a single colour seat, no patterns. They got rid of moquette but TfL states seats have to use moquette, so they now use generic TfL bus moquette.

    The GB kites look better in my opinion but these MCVs have competition for the sales cuz GB kites are now on abellio and practically everywhere in the UK. Hope MCV tries to do the same!

      my opinion these look better, because you look at the side window at the back and it dont fit, but i get what you mean and i hope these do well aswell!

    Why they didn’t put Stagecoach Seats?

    • @Peter-mj6lz
      @Peter-mj6lz 4 месяца назад

      I heard it’s because tfl seats require a moquette. And if you look at new outer London Stagecoach bus interiors they lack a moquette. I actually prefer this interior to an old Stagecoach interior, it especially suits the high spec interior as well.

    Not a fan of the tfl moquette, don’t understand why Stagecoach didn’t use leather seats or the original interior , same with the electroliners.. oh well

    • @LJ07EBP
      @LJ07EBP 4 месяца назад

      Because Stagecoach no longer have their own fabric, they only have leather so they had to result to using tfls fabric as the seats within a high spec TFL interior require either fully fabric or fabric and leather mixed. Stagecoaches fabric was outdated since they changed the logo and it still has the original logo on it, so I can see why they stopped it but they gotta come up with a replacement

  • @thebus-ter
    @thebus-ter 4 месяца назад +2

    Im a bit disappointed with the seating layout.
    This bus feels like there's barely any more seats on the front and it doesn't have the new Stagecoach interior.
    I'm gonna assume Stagecoach can't rollout the new interior due to interior design requirements.
    So 6/10 for me. 🤷🏿‍♂️

    • @LJ07EBP
      @LJ07EBP 4 месяца назад

      This is Stagecoaches new interior, they don't have a fabric livery anymore so they had to result to using tfls fabric but besides that its still their own colours

      @@thebus-ter your opinion is respected. I think Stagecoach just need to get their own fabric again as the new interior colours are good but you can't just go with TFL fabric forever, cmon your a big company you got to have your own fabric

    • @TheKentBusboy
      @TheKentBusboy 4 месяца назад

      Yes but think. The 507 and 521 had designated room for commuters so the seating layout could be inspired by this and may do heavier jobs in the future instead of the 276.

    Looks nice but that is a strange interior layout and a lack of a centre final-row seat is stupid (probably over "safety").
    Not at all digging the Chapman-manufactured seat moquette, Go-Ahead's design is much better.
