Setra ComfortClass 500 Series

With its Euro VI engine, aerodynamic design and reinforced vehicle body, Setra’s new generation 500 series of the ComfortClass family has already incorporated the features of tomorrow.

Setra’s six-cylinder in-lineengine developed by Mercedes-Benz, which complies with the Euro VI standard and produces 428hp (315kW), offers the drivers a unique power and traction. In addition to a more productive combustion in the Euro VI engine technology, the vehicle consumes less fuel and produces less emission. The vehicle’s redeveloped aerodynamic design, the body that automatically lowers itself at high speed and many other innovations optimize the fuel consumption.

Equipped with an extensive array of active and passive safety systems, Setra ComfortClass provides top class safety. Setra ComfortClass safety systems already meet the ECE-R 66/01 requirement which will be compulsory in Europe in 2017 with its following features:

  • The new “Front Collision Guard – FCG 2”, which protects the driver by absorbing the impact during front collisions,
  • Electronic Stability Program – ESP, which provides stable and safe driving,
  • ABS, which prevents the wheels from locking during braking,
  • ASR, which prevents the drive wheels from spinning and allows them to lift without spinning even in hard conditions,
  • Electronic Brake System – EBS, which reduces the brake distance by providing quick response,
  • Electronic Level Control, providing high quality handling,
  • FPS (flexible programmable-control system) that reduces in-vehicle wiring and ensures effective data communications,
  • Disc brakes, which provide more powerful and homogenous braking works in front and rear wheels,
  • The redesigned reinforced vehicle body.

The indicators that provide easy control in the driver area, ignition with start-stop switch, bi-zonal air conditioning and electrical portable monitor provide the necessary conditions for a comfortable journey.

On the other hand, Setra ComfortClass coaches provide greater ride comfort for the passengers which goes beyond all expectations, with its following features:
