A delivery of 20 new Flixbus-branded Yutong GT12 vehicles marks the start of another major expansion phase, the operator says. Flixbus UK Senior Managing Director Andreas Schorling visited supplier Pelican Bus & Coach in Castleford recently to celebrate the arrival of the 20 new vehicles ahead of their delivery to operator partners, bringing the total number of Flixbus coaches to over 200 in the UK as the brand continues to expand its coverage.
Andreas 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 journey is a vital part of our growth strategy as we continue towards market leadership in the UK.”
Managing Director of Pelican Richard Crump 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’ growing UK network by delivering high quality coaches that passengers and operators can trust.”
