• The Carlyle Dailybus 2 is Jaimed to combine increased power with a range of other improvements.
The power boost offers 771cW (103hp), compared with its predecessor's 69kW (92hp). The Iveco Ford chassis has new aerodynamic styling and a larger destination display is fitted to comply with DIPTAC requirements for passengers with defective vision. Improved heating and a larger windscreen complete the revisions.
Carlyle claims launch orders of £500,000. Previous customers for the Dailybus include London Buses, West Midlands Travel, Strathclyde and many ex-NBC companies. More than 300 vehicles have been sold.
The new chassis is currently on service trials with two operators, says Carlyle.
