Très intéressant véhicule. Les porte-bagages sont spacieux. Les sièges sont calqués sur ceux de Mercedes-Benz et Setra, ce qui est très bien. J’aime beaucoup beaucoup le garnissage des sièges, le tissu est magnifique. Merci Van Hool !

I drove various models of the T9 and TDX27. It's solid, but it makes you constant aware of driving a huge bus all the time. Which isn't a bad thing, but i like the way my Setra S431 feels like I'm cruising an average hatchback car. However, storage space and kitchen in the Van Hool are much more efficient.
Still better than trying to sit and relax while your neighbour, on the aisle side, is charging his phone. Also: that's where all coaches have them as far as i know and we have Mercedes, Setra, Van Hool, VDL and Scania.
Okay now about this new bus. As an owne a bus company, I would shelve those camera mirrors. Won't last for long and if and when they won't work, you can't drive. One bus down for your fleet. All large heated mirrors better option. The carpets, oh boy that's must go. Can't clean those fast enough after every trip. In winter they will be filthy. That wood floor, another lousy move. Better molding vinyl flooring that you can sweep and pass the mop fast. Carpeted stairs OMG this is even worse molded vinyl please. Crap, they kept those awful 6 buttons. No digital screen, well that's no big deal. But no pressure gages again. Use those awful rubber useless buttons. Fridge and sinks out please, more maintenance and time consuming labour. The toilet same shiit , no pun intended. Okay from what I see, beautiful gorgeous front lights and especially the back lights. OMG they even placed a window in the back, excellent. That sleeping quarter's, maybe an extra storage. Storage racks downstairs and up. Small but they Era there great! Okay for the wipers on top they are never going to last. My suggestion they should be tucked away and work separately from those below. They should only be operated with a sensor that can defrost the winter before they go on. Othereise they always break otherwise and I would just take them off for good. So come up with a better strategy Van Hool. People buy tickets just to sit in front. When they aren't working or disconnected you can't see anything. People complain. Otherwise, still need better design in the inside, but the outside congrats it's gorgeous.
That Van Hool is probably just a service coach for long distances the executive coaches usually have all the fancy gadgets so I’m assuming they will have an executive model of that bus with monitors and extras inside it
You better have a lot of cash for maintenance. They are work horse. No the not so good stuff. The engine retard doesn't always work, the defroster on these buses are awful, those awful 6 black buttons push buttons on the console never work as they should. Nothing to measure the pressure unless you know kpa. Heating and cooling for the driver is an awful design, in winter you freeze your feet. The toilet OMG awful, not hygienic don't breath the air when you go in , be careful when u go number 2, because whatever is in there will splash back up your bum. Cheapest design you can find. The dials are as old as 1970s green only. If you sit downstairs it's like riding a go-kart, you feel every freaking bump. As a driver, you don't feel them cause you're in front of the wheels. The wipers will bang on each side of the window, constantly need to adjust how far they go. Suspension in front needs so much better design and improvement. OKAY now for the good stuff. It can carry 81 people. It has back wheel steering, they usually work most of the time. So easy to drive, large low front window. If you have four mirrors that's even better, but be aware in winter they freeze. Other than that, people always want to ride in those TDX compare to single deck buses. It's a crowd pleaser. For some reason it gives out a vibe that people just want to experience. It's a workhorse. The transmission is great, when you press the gas pedal from a stand still it's smooth. But be aware with this transmission, when you stop it always goes in neutral, press and keep your foot on the break.
