COACH

摘要

In the face of a strong challenge from Mercedes-Benz, Volvo just managed to hold on to its market leadership, as a modest increase in sales left its market share unchanged. Volvo currently offers two models, the B8R and the B11R, with the latter accounting for nearly 80% of the total sold. Stagecoach continued to favour Volvo, buying 32 for Megabus.com coach routes and long distance bus services, although this was less than half the previous year's intake. Around 60 were delivered to National Express contractors, mainly to Go-Ahead and Edwards in South Wales. Another important customer was Park's of Hamilton which received 23,11 of them for Scottish Citylink services.
