Display Concept
For the urban traffic's benefit: The nonstep bus Kutsenits
The only way for the 21st century bus: Kutsenits
Congested cities, daily traffic jams, lack of parking space. The only way to solve these problems for urban citizens is to develop the public transportation. But too much time and investments needed to expand the traffic net with new subways and monorails make the idea not too realistic.
The answer for the 21st century urban transportation: the Kutsenits City-Bus Environment-friendly CNG(compressed natural gas) versions, spacious passenger room in compact sized body, a wide variation of models, comfortable nonstep entry, exactly the City-bus developed for the urban population.
Presently, in the city of Kanazawa in the Ishikawa prefecture, officially administered vehicles are actually running, known as "Kanazawa Flat Bus", and have gained a remarkable popularity among the citzens.

Kutsenits Bus characteristics

Kutsenits Bus Characteristics
"Body as small as possible-functions as many as possible"
Kutsenits aimed for putting the necessary equipment into small body with a tight turning circle at minimum costs. Due to its high reliability and flexibility, a Volkswagen T-4 was chosen as base, to create a bus adaptable to all kinds of orders.
For example: Beside deisel and gasoline engines, CNG(compressed natural gas) and LP-gas engines are available. Transmissions can be chosen between 5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic.

Originally developed front and rear airsuspension:
A kneeling system makes it possible to lower the bus at the front, rear, left and right and adjust the distance from the car's floor to the ground.

Based on technology, that is friendly to the human and his environment, living is made easier for elderly and handicapped persons. The original air suspension system lowers the vehicles to a minimum distance of 3cm from the ground, which is the shortest in the world. It allows persons using a wheelchair to get on and off the bus completely without help. Easy to operate new safety one-touch lock systems prevent the wheelchairs from moving. The bus can also be equipped with an emergency bed and can be used as an ambulance vehicle.
The seats are products of european human engineering. While showing a high fashionability, they guarantee a high stability for passengers while keeping fatigue low during long rides.

The order made bus for the 21st century-Kutsenits
Ordermade-It means being able to respond to every thinkable demand. Each vehicle has a purpose and each part and each detail of it has to be made without compromise just to serve that purpose. We guarantee that a Kutsenits bus will just be the right bus for any thinkable situation of the urban transport, be it at a hospital, a home for seniors or at an airport, now and in the next millenium.
