Volvo launches new B9R / 9400 6x2 bus in India


What is a bus doing on this blog right? Well, after cars and bikes, it is the buses that I am crazy about.

You may have a look at my bus blog at travelbyvolvo.blogspot.com

Volvo today launched a new multi-axle bus, called the 9400 6x2 or the B9R.
The list price is Rs 85 lakh and Sharma transport has already picked up one.

In comparison to the B7R, the new bus is 1.7 meters longer and offers 8 more seats. Power too goes up via a 9-liter engine as compared to a 7-liter for the earlier one.

After Mercedes launched their buses here, we all knew Volvo too would do something.

The 9400 6x2 looks very good in flesh. For that matter, even the smaller B7R overshadows the Mercedes bus easily. I am now waiting to get a ride on the new Volvo B9R. Keep yourself updated here ...
