| Ashok Leyland, the Hinduja Group flagship, showcased the ‘Janbus’ and the ‘Janbus Midi’, the world’s ‘first’, front-engine, fully flat floor buses at the International Bus and Utility Vehicle Show, being held at Greater Noida. Feature-rich and technologically advanced, both these vehicles are innovative transport solutions addressing urban transportation needs. While the ‘Janbus’ is ideal for easy, comfortable and affordable city travel, the ‘Janbus Midi’ will serve as a feeder bus. |
| With a floor height of 650 mm, the ‘Janbus’ has uniform floor height right from the driver’s work station to the rear for hassle-free passenger movement. Boarding and alighting is easy thanks to its wide doors and single step entry which also significantly reduces stoppage time at bus stops |
| The 8-meter ‘Janbus Midi’, with a uniform floor height of 650 mm is specially designed for feeder services, offering passengers last mile connectivity from metro stations, BRT corridors to their final destinations. Metro feeder operations require quick boarding and alighting for which the bus is equipped with wide doors and a single-step entry. |
| Ashok Leyland Jan bus - The Hitech Low Cost Approach Low floor buses invariably meant integral construction and a rear engine not to mention a big cost outlay. Not any longer if one has to go by Ashok Leyland's novel approach with its Jan bus There is something about the 'can do' spirit which has been imbibed by many of our Indian OEMs as they grapple with the onerous task of delivering worthwhile solutions to mobility while forsaking outright tech for smart thought. Much that very essence pervades the very concept of the Jan Bus (Jan as in janata, public) that has surprisingly come from the uber staid and not to mention, ultra conservative Ashok Leyland... |
