Does Orion have an artic design already "waiting in the wings"? |

That's the big question. We know they had a Mercedes-Benz Citaro artic from their European sister company touring North America a few years ago, but I haven't seen any definitive word since then about this bus being modified for sale here. The Orion VII shares some styling cues with its European cousins, but it's a different enough bus that engineering an artic version will be a challenge. I'd love to see it, though!

Could be interesting, and would give Orion the chance to compete with Nova for future artic orders. |
