TURKEY: Following the introduction of its Crossway range to the Turkish market, Iveco Bus, in partnership with FSM Demirbaş Otomotive, says the market is already looking promising, with buses delivered to the towns of Balıkesir, Kocaeli and Manisa.
Six Crossways units will be deployed on services between Balıkesir and Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen Airport, joining the 10 already in service since 2023, and 27 examples will operate routes between Kocaeli, the airport, and surrounding areas. Two more of the 55-seat vehicles have been delivered to the town of Manisa.

“We are delighted with the trust that the municipalities of Balıkesir, Kocaeli and Manisa have placed in our Crossway model. These new deliveries reinforce our commitment to providing high-quality and reliable transport solutions tailored to the specific needs of our customers in Turkey. We are confident that the Crossway will contribute to the improvement of public transport services in the region,” said Gauthier Ricord, Head of Commercial Operations for AMEA & ANZ regions at Iveco Bus.
