The Skyliner caters for motorised wanderlust with a touch of luxury. Right from the very rst moment: its dynamic exterior and the modern technology within set passengers pulses racing even before the trip gets under way. This coach has that certain something it is 44 centimetres longer, even in the small model. With a total length of 12.44 m or 13.79 m, passengers have considerably more room than in comparable buses, but also a much better view opening new horizons on the trip.

dimension in travel
The Skyliner gives its passengers a new feeling for time and space. On the top deck in particular, passengers feel they can touch the sky and not just thanks to the glass roof in the central aisle. Standing room of 168 cm means that your head is clear, especially if you dont want to stay in your seat during a stop. In both its roof design and seating plan, the new Skyliners design makes freedom to move a priority. Passengers want for nothing especially when it comes to comfort.

Companies that offer high-end trips should guarantee exemplary safety provision: the electronically regulated braking system (EBS) for signicantly shorter braking distances and maximum braking stability, the braking assistant (BA), electronic stability program (ESP), maximum speed control (MSC) and accident data recorder (ADR) improve safety both actively and passively and make your journey more comfortable. If the Skyliner drifts out of lane, the optional lane guard system (LGS) warns the driver with a vibration impulse. A groundbreaking overall concept that Neoplan uses to ensure passengers arrive at their nal destination safely and in a relaxed frame of mind.

ITS THE SAME IN THE COCKPIT: SAFETY FIRST A look into the cockpit reveals ergonomically designed control elements and prominent instruments. Thanks to its excellent seating concept, the individually adjustable drivers workplace guarantees a safe journey, without unnecessary tiredness even on the longest journeys.

EVEN MOUNTAIN PASSES ARE FUN The powerful MAN engine, with its 480 hp and a maximum torque of 2,300 Nm, can deal with the steepest of inclines. Maintenance too is as easy as you could imagine: the large rear panel makes the whole engine easily accessible.

WHO SAYS YOU CANT GET ROUND WEAR AND TEAR ON YOUR TYRES? The electronically regulated tag axle makes the Skyliner more straight-running, stable and safe-going into bends. It improves handling and reduces wear on tyres.

SPACE FOR YOUR CASE Easy access through two doors: the Skyliners hold is big enough to accommodate luggage, sports equipment and much more.
