The latest addition to the Johnsons Coaches, is a 13.2m, 43-seat tri-axle Irizar Integral i8 luxury coach which will serve the company’s own Luxury Traveller programme.
The new coach is finished in the Luxury Traveller distinctive livery complemented by black-tint windows and LED exterior lighting.
Other passenger amenities include a centre sunken toilet with an electric hand dryer, and entertainment provided by the Bosch Smart Series audio-visual system with monitors located in the front and centre of the saloon. The seating is equipped with a lateral displacement system, magazine-holders, multi-position footrests and aircraft-style tables.
USB charging points and onboard Wi-fi will keep passengers connected while on the move.
A servery area has been installed over the toilet top, featuring a Nespresso coffee machine and a hot and cold water tap to provide passenger refreshments.
The built-in vacuum cleaner will help to maintain the coach in immaculate condition on tour, while a leather steering wheel provides a touch of luxury for the driver.
The luxurious coach features the powerful DAF MX-13 355 483 hp engine, driving through the sophisticated ZF Traxon automated manual gearbox.
Safety features include road and reversing cameras, and active cruise-control.
The new i8 is prepared for PSVAR and with this future proofing in place, the residual value will be protected.
Johnsons Coaches have opted for the digital camera vision system once again in place of traditional mirrors after taking delivery one of the first mirrorless i8 coaches last year.
