Drove the new Citaro for my city route this week. The improved fuel efficiency is noticeable, which is a big plus given the current operational costs. However, I felt the driver's cabin, while ergonomic, could use slightly better seat cushioning for long shifts.

Driving the Citaro has been quite an experience. The driver’s seat is adjustable and genuinely provides good support during long hours. The automatic four-speed gearbox is responsive yet could use a bit more efficiency at higher speeds. The door operation is smooth and noise-free, offering a quieter ride for passengers. Still, the overall lighting inside relies on conventional daylight bulbs, which might need modernization. Moving on, I find the onboard passenger information system easy to operate and reliable.

I've driven the Toyota Coaster for a few months now. It's spacious, making it great for group trips. However, the acceleration feels sluggish, especially on inclines. Fuel efficiency is decent for its size. Maneuvering in crowded areas takes some care, given its length. Maintenance costs seem reasonable so far. Overall, it works well for transportation needs.

I recently began using the Toyota Coaster for tour services. Its spaciousness impresses tourists and provides an enjoyable ride experience with ample visibility. The dashboard-mounted gear knob is user-friendly and ergonomically placed. While the comfort levels are satisfactory, I feel the ride can be slightly bumpy on uneven terrains. Nonetheless, it's a versatile vehicle well-suited for its size and purpose.

I used to drive on domestic minibuses before, I like Mercedes - there is more space for the driver and for passengers, easy to handle, quiet and smooth ride. The bus is large, it is easier for passengers to board thanks to the low floor.

I like the quiet operation of the doors, reliable 12L diesel engine, adjustable seat, and informative dashboard. I can accelerate up to 50 km in 15 seconds. Not very satisfied with the salon heating, but this is related to our winters.

Driving the Mercedes-Benz Citaro is a relatively smooth experience. The configuration offers commendable ergonomics, and the advanced driver assistance systems add to operational ease. However, the air conditioning system faced minor issues, possibly due to prolonged idle status. Overall, it feels sturdy and dependable for city driving.

Used to drive this Coaster EX trim back in the day for staff transport. Visibility is real good, those big windows help a ton and the mirrors give a clear view when squeezing through tight spots. Feels sturdy, and the ride is less bumpy than some older minibuses, probably because of that air suspension in the back. Not everything is perfect though - storage isn’t the best if your passengers carry a lot of bags, even though you can fold the rear seats. Also, the sliding doors are a bit slow to open and close, and on a couple old buses the AC wasn’t strong enough in the back row. Engine’s a real workhorse, barely gives any drama, but changing oil every 15,000 km sometimes trips up the schedule. Still, I’d take this over a lot of tin-can mini-buses any day, just wish the seats were a bit more comfy for those longer trips.
