The operator has already placed an order for another 15 buses with the same configuration. The delivery of those is scheduled for the end of this year.

The ATM Milano has configured its vehicle in a way it can offer seats for 26 passengers, and 14 of them is available from the low floor. The buses are also equipped with an efficient air conditioning. One of the elements improving safety on board is the sophisticated Fire Trace fire extinguishing system which includes.eg., the possibility of an automatic extinguishing of the traction container. The operator from Milan has also ordered an advanced monitoring system, consisting of 9 cameras, a rear camera, a 10” monitor on the center console and a data recorder. The vehicles also provide a passenger counting system.
