Iveco bus
(formerly
Irisbus
) is a bus manufacturer headquartered in Lyon, part of the CNH Global industrial group through its subsidiary Iveco,[1] based in Turin (Italy). Iveco-bus is now only a brand division of IVECO.[2][3][4] which is a company incorporated under Italian law and registered with Borsa Italiana.

Iveco Bus was formed by the merger of the bus and tourism divisions of Fiat Industrial, Iveco and Renault in January 1999. The Icarus bus was added at the end of 1999. In 2006, the Ikarus Bus division was sold to the Hungarian group Műszertechnika.
From 2003 to 2010, 100% of Irisbus shares belonged to Fiat Group's Iveco, and the company was named Irisbus Iveco
[5] Now, since 2013, Irisbus is 100% owned by CNH Industrial with Iveco.
The company is based in Lyon, France, with offices in Turin, Italy, Watford and Mainz. The buses are being developed in one of two research centers - in Italy and Switzerland. The engine powering Irisbus buses was developed in Italy by Fiat Powertrain Technologies, Turin, Italy.
The Irisbus name was dropped and the unit is now a subsidiary of Iveco, renamed Iveco Bus
in May 2013, following a reorganization plan.[6] All new buses are sold under the IVECO brand, like all other vehicles produced by the group.

Under the sound of rain...
The Crossway family is well known in Russia.
More than half of all Crossway 12M produced work with us, of which 224 cars are in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug. The “twins” of our today’s hero, the Irisbus Crossway LE 12M (albeit in a two-door version), can be found on routes in Moscow, the Moscow and Kaliningrad regions, and in the Khabarovsk Territory - the cars were delivered back in 2012–2014. A large number of Crossways operate as service buses mainly in the oil and gas sector. And most importantly, not a single machine is suspended from operation due to a technical malfunction, and most of the machines operate in the north of the country, where operating conditions are not at all sweet. Technical characteristics of the IVECO Crossway LE-City 12M bus
| Total weight, kg | 18 000 |
| Curb weight, kg | 10 480 |
Passenger capacity, persons
| 115 31 1 |
| Luggage compartment capacity, m3 | 6 |
| Permissible load on 1st/2nd axles, kg | 6500/11 500 |
Engine:
| IVECO F2B Cursor 8 Turbodiesel 7790 330 at 1550–2020 min-1 1500 at 1125–1550 min-1 |
Transmission
| VOITH D864.5 GMP 4/1 |
| Suspension | Pneumatic, front – independent |
| Brake system | Pneumatic |
| Wheel formula | 4x2 |
| Minimum turning radius, m | 9550 |
| Fuel tank capacity, l | 320 |
Perhaps it is the fact that the buses have proven themselves well in this harsh region and enjoy well-deserved prestige among fuel companies that allows IVECO representatives to look into the future with such confidence. At least, this is one of the few European companies that actively participates in a specialized event (the World of Buses festival) and from year to year brings one or another previously undemonstrated model to Kolomna.
As it turned out, at present there are not many analogues of the semi-low-floor urban IVECO Crossway LE-City 12M on our market, especially with the 2-2-2 door formula. Offhand you can name the LiAZ-5293, the MAZ 1034 family, the semi-low-floor version of the NefAZ-5299 and, with a slight stretch, the Golden Dragon XML6125CR (it has a 3rd single-leaf door). There is also the MAN Lion's City A78, but it only has two doors, and that's probably all. Modern trends in transferring all urban transport to “low-floor” ones are understandable when it comes to megacities like Moscow or St. Petersburg. But if we talk about smaller cities and regional centers, then questions immediately arise about the ability to properly operate (quality of roads) and maintain (qualification of personnel, capabilities of the repair zone) such machines. And the prices are steep.
Against this background, IVECO Crossway LE-City 12M looks like a good choice. The car has already been tested and suits both drivers and passengers. As for the price - “free cheese is only in a mousetrap”, and the downtime of a machine purchased on credit is also a “moustrap”...
