Chinese luxury buses set to hit Nigerian market



Yutong of Zhenghou, China’s bus builder will soon be introducing a range of high capacity buses into the country.
To this end, all arrangements have been perfected between Maneffort Limited, a leasing, logistics, auto sales and manpower training and development firm; the preferred franchise owners with head office in Lagos and Yutong.

In a chat with news men, the Managing Director of Maneffort, Mr. Mohammed S B Mahmud, said all the buses destined for the Nigerian market in line with the dictates of the environment will be running on Cummins engines.

He stated that, only high quality engines produced by world famous manufacturers are permitted to be installed in Yutong buses, whereby the brand’s state-level technical centre intensively studies the numerous factors in influencing fuel efficiency.

As a result, he said the company had succeeded in making the engine run stably even with lower fuel consumption through the adoption of advanced engine technologies.

When finally available, he said top of the range would be the Yutong ZK6147H super luxurious model passenger bus with rigid bus body structure and steady performance sufficiently ensures the operation safety that can create more profit. “Through strict control of each step in design and production, the brand reduces the maintenance rate and cost efficiency while bringing to customers long-term value in return.

“It is equipped with double glass front windscreen with smooth outline and also maintenance friendly and sophisticated driveline with low fuel consumption.

The ZK6737D series on its part, he said, “comes with very innovative front grille combines the front headlight as a whole, a technically advanced chassis that ensures good rigidly while having the ability to bear large capacities and simple, yet stylish interior trimming with harmonious colour choices.”

Reacting on the price sensitive nature of the luxury bus buyers locally, Maneffort chief executive revealed that Yutong manufactures understand operators expects to purchase a high quality bus at reasonable prices, while also reducing operating cost effectively and enhancing the capacity of earning profits. “Yutong Buses are coming to Nigeria with adequate spare parts, adequate technical back up, Manufacturers warranty and free after sales service up to six months after purchase”, the Maneffort boss said.

@ fl gators

what are your observations, complaints, experiences, etc, with the lagos buses you found on google?

btw, luxury buses have been around in nigeria for a while.

the other thread was specifically discussing double decker buses, which used to be mainly found in britain.





like kobojunkie pointed out shocked,

interstate luxurious buses arent commonly available in the southwest [besides lagos], i think. Maybe you can talk to some of these nairalanders [you never know which of them has connections] about convincing the big bus companies to include other western states besides lagos, in their destinations.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=478674.msg6382057#msg6382057 date=1279082685]Never said Fashola should handle IT. That should be a private business. Those are not greyhound type, those are same ridiculous buses carrying 10x its capacity. We need atleast larger and more comfortable buses since the distance is longer and more loads are expected than usual.

Okay, am also assuming that there a buses that run within cities only too[/quote]ekene dili chukwu and other luxurious buses are not molues.

the bus size is the same as what obtains abroad though i wouldnt know if they're being overpacked.

i guess you're referring to the small vans, not the ones i'm mentioning.

here, i found this:

Why cant Nigeria adopt city buses? Different from traveling buses[eg: grey hounds]? It'll be easier and more convenient. Because I dont understand why one has to take a Lagos bus to Ekiti, with stops on the way  undecided[/quote]Fashola introduced BRT.

should he also handle interstate transportation? huh

and to the best of my knowledge, there are plenty of interstate buses owned by private individuals, which travel throughout the country, and especially to the east.

greyhound type.

He was the man behind that blue-coloured luxury bus you rode the other day to your destination. The blue bus embossed with the name, Ekene Dili Chukwu (Thanks be to God), remember? He was the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ekene Dili Chukwu Group of Companies that has, well over 300 luxury buses and over 150 articulated vehicles, namely trailers and trucks, in its fleet.

As a brief biographical sketch on him rightly pointed out, “the history of luxury buses for long distance operations will not be complete without mentioning his name, for he pioneered their use in Nigeria.”

last time i checked, cabs have always been available in lagos. If you're too fancy for molue and too broke for a cab, then ogun state is right around the corner for you to live in. No molues there.

N17,000 is too small.




The truth is 17000 is more than enough for workers in some states of the federation
really?

not sure about that.

most people still need to supplement their income in some way.

Minimum wage feeds millions across the country to this day. It may not buy them luxury but it does feed them. No be by force to post online especially if you have no clue what you are rambling on about. Some of us actually lived on minimum for a couple of years and can educate you on how well you can feed yourself on minimum wage here.
minimum wages will feed, clothe and house you if you combine two or three of them together, or else dont pay rent.
