Caio Induscar and Iveco Bus present the SoulClass micro-bus

2017-04-20 The latest thing in accessibility, design and innovation was presented to the press this week: the SoulClass micro-bus, result of the union of forces from Caio Induscar and Iveco Bus. Maurício Lourenço da Cunha, industrial director of Caio Induscar, emphasizes the importance of the partnership, which extends the portfolio of affordable solutions of the brand. ``The Iveco Bus, just like Caio, searches for constant innovation within its DNA`` From this affinity, the SoulClass project was born, which has had approximately 1 year of development. This launch renews our vocation to always be in forefront. Caio was the first to be approved by Inmetro for the manufacture of accessible bodies. Now we are innovating again with the first inclusive bus in the Brazilian market.``
The model, which will be available to the market starting in the second half of 2017, will be offered in the school and executive versions, bringing innumerable advantages to operators and users, with differentials that make it special in every way. ``The design of the armchairs was designed to bring total comfort and safety to users, and a very important detail: the reserved armchair, equipped with the DPM (Mobile Armchair Device) is just like the others. Just by looking at the passenger hall, you won`t be able to identify it. This is inclusion, to understand the necessities of the next thing, without putting a label on it. Every user is special, as are people with transportation difficulties``, explains Tânia Pires de Souza, Communication and Marketing Manager of the Caio Induscar Group.
The design, with automotive concept, has been designed to offer better aerodynamic performance, with glued side windows and integral plates. Low noise, warmth and ease of maintenance are provided by engine access and components from the outside, with ample bonnet aperture and removable front grille.
The robustness, grandiosity and versatility of the F2200i body were allied to technological items such as electric mirrors with LED lights embedded in the fairing, also present in the optical assembly, break Light and position light. The aluminum back cover is light and penetrates the bumper area, making loading and unloading easier.
The model in the executive version has a sedan door for access to the DPM with limiter, which allows passengers to get on and off, and also through the pantographic door. An air diffuser adjustment, individual reading light, cup holder and screen in the armchairs to store objects, provide a cozy and comfortable ride to users.
This is SoulClass, a product which unites a tradition of more than 70 years of the Caio brand, with the technology and drivability that the Iveco Bus has. ``Looking to the future, understanding the needs of each and every client, has always been part of the Caio Induscar mission. And this mission was fulfilled with excellence in SoulClass, which combines compliance with the new norms with respect to the user with reduced mobility and profitability to the operators``, finishes director Maurício Cunha.
