FlixBus has accepted a delivery of 20 new Yutong buses as part of a major Summer expansion.

Wrapped in FlixBus-branded livery; the new coaches, which include multiple Yutong GT12 coaches, will begin operation as part of the operator’s UK services over the coming weeks.

To celebrate the delivery of the 20 buses, FlixBus UK Senior Managing Director Andreas Schorling visited Pelican Bus + Coach in Castleford
FlixBus UK Senior Managing Director Andreas Schorling said:

We’ve experienced such rapid growth that it’s fantastic to see it visually represented by this fleet of FlixBus-branded vehicles before they hit the road.

Our passengers love travelling on brand-new coaches tailored to the FlixBus experience, and ensuring a high-quality onboard journey is a vital part of our growth strategy as we continue towards market leadership in the UK.

The addition of the new vehicles will bring the operator’s UK fleet to over 200 units, with its current network spanning more than 80 destinations across the country.

The new vehicles come equipped with USB charging points and power sockets, and will enter operation on routes between cities including London, Leicester, Sheffield, Bristol and Leeds.

Richard Crump, Managing Director of Pelican Engineering Group, said:

It’s fantastic to celebrate the arrival of these vehicles. The rapid growth that FlixBus have achieved in the UK is a testament to the skill and dedication of their management team and this delivery shows the strength of our partnership and the continued confidence of FlixBus in Yutong vehicles.

We’re very proud to play our part in supporting FlixBus’s growing UK network by delivering high quality coaches that passengers and operators can trust.
