New Turkish and Chinese buses at EBE

Over 50 new exhibitors have signed up for November’s Euro Bus Expo at the NEC. New exhibitors include Turkish manufacturer Otokar and Chinese builder Chang Chun Automotive. Exhibiting in their own right for the first time will be VDL Bus and Coach, Irizar and UNVI. Wrightbus will use the event to show its new StreetLite midibus.

Show director Mark Griffin says: “The importance of Euro Bus Expo as a showcase for leading industry manufacturers and suppliers is demonstrated both by the range of new exhibitors and the quality of companies participating.

“Around £12million worth of buses and coaches will be on display both inside the hall and in the outside demonstration area. It’s very encouraging to see the industry presenting such a strong showcase.”
