It should be confirmed since the bus is painted into SMRT corporate livery. This will be the 2nd China-brand public bus serving in Singapore. It is also designed to suit the Wheelchair Accessible Bus and low-entry requirement.
The 1st China-brand bus which came to Singapore as a public bus, KING LONG, and it serves passengers at the Sentosa. Registered as PA8031M, in the orange Sentosa livery.
The news of the Yutong demonstrator was first reported in China's bus enthusiast forum 92bus.com and then to Singapore's bus enthusiast forum SGForums.com
If the picture and post is indeed accurate, SMRT has broken new grounds again by bringing in the first revenue service China-made city bus. TIll date, Singapore has got privately owned vehicles and tourist coaches (including the PA registered Sentosa King Long city bus) that are imported from China.
More information to be updated.
