Volvo 9600 14.5/15m B8R is a cost out Product.
The Specs of Engine are lower.
KSRTC Ambaari Utsaav, people who travelled in it have not liked the bus. Especially they have seen no value for MONEY being charged Premium.
Bus are speed locked at 80kmph and these are quite slow as the punch of B11R is missing. Though the Dream Class may be locked at 80 kmph the Torque that is available makes it quick enough.

Exteriors:
There is a tapering at the back to prevent touching the Ground in steep ghats.

Interiors:
Change in AC duct location and also provision to lift the pillow for sitting.
For me the internal design looks Clean, Simple, sturdy and effective. MG rocks.
My opinion is that the interiors are superior to What Volvo India bus has achieved.

I am not sure if Volvo India would provide chassis to MG, I would love more of MG Starz on road.

Just curious what happened to Asian Express Volvo buses?
Have they been sold or have gone for Sleeper conversion?

Parveen is able to sustain operating their Volvo and MB Semisleeper.
In private in South, now only Parveen & SRS seems to have Semisleeper in Volvo or MB.

I see only 1 bus of Kallada in Hyderabad [Hyderabad - Nagercoil route].
