MAN Lion’s Intercity will inspire you – offering improved safety and comfort for passengers, a cockpit consequently oriented to the needs of the driver and maximum efficiency.
The high flexibility of the configuration allows our MAN Lion’s Intercity to be tailored to deployment as an intercity bus, in shuttle transport or as school bus. When it comes to the transport of school children, safety is a top priority. That’s why the MAN Lion’s Intercity meets the ECE R66.02 standard, applicable since 2017, which sets particularly stringent requirements for the strength of the body in buses.
Abundant equipment set at extremely lean costs. The new MAN Lion’s Intercity combines first-class comfort with high functionality and outstanding safety with solid quality. These characteristics make the MAN bus the perfect long-distance vehicle.
Highest efficiency, rugged processing and no compromises when it comes to safety – these features distinguish the new MAN Lion’s Intercity; a combination that works great when used as a school bus.
The high flexibility of its interior configuration, the large luggage compartment and the low fuel consumption, and not least the low life cycle costs (LCC), make the new MAN Lion’s Intercity an economic miracle for regular services and shuttle services.
Whether with its distinctive aerodynamic design, or with its bright and lavish passenger area with continuous colour scheme, the MAN Lion’s Intercity is sure to impress with its broad range of applications across the line.

Materials, production and processing for the MAN Lion’s Intercity are consistently designed for long service life. The high MAN quality standards ensure that the bus is very well equipped for the demanding long-distance travelling – every day anew.
The MAN Lion’s Intercity already meets the ECE R66.02 standard, applicable as of 2017, for roll-over rigidity and thus provides an even higher level of passive safety.
The MAN Lion’s Intercity impresses with its low fuel consumption. For this, lightweight construction was consistently pursued in the development. After extensive testing, we were successful in showing a measurable reduction in the aerodynamic drag. In addition, the maintenance- and repair friendliness of the bus reduces downtimes to a minimum.
In road traffic, accidents can never be ruled out – it’s good if passengers, driver and other road users can count on it, that everything is done for your protection. For the MAN Lion’s Intercity, safety is a top priority.
In addition, accidents lead to increased costs due to repairs and downtimes. The intercity bus is equipped with numerous safety systems. The risk of accident is reduced significantly and the economic efficiency is maximised.

Efficient due to low TCO/LCC (Total Cost of Ownership/Life Cycle Costs)
In the design of the vehicle, lightweight construction was consistently applied. The use of lightweight components ensures a particularly low vehicle weight for the MAN Lion’s Intercity.
Features such as automatic engine shut-down during idling or the air compressor with automatic idling system ensure high efficiency.
Two-stage air compressor with idling system
The two-stage air compressor with automatic idling system (SLS) automatically switches to idling in the non-delivery phase and thus contributes noticeably to a reduction in fuel consumption.
Idle Shut Down
The automatic engine shut-down during Idle Shut Down avoids CO2 and vehicle-related noise emissions.
Air resistance plays only a minor role at low speeds in city traffic. However, in long-distance travel at speeds up to 100 km/h, it contributes to a large portion of the fuel consumption. Through numerous wind tunnel tests and simulations, it has been possible to significantly reduce consumption to ensure maximum efficiency and economy in use as a long-distance bus.
The aerodynamically developed design with vaulted, slightly inclined panoramic front window provides less contact area to the headwind. The air flow is optimally deflected by the rear separation edge.
The free access to all service points simplifies servicing and repair work. Thus the downtime of MAN Lion’s Intercity is reduced, while repair and workshop costs are reduced:
Highest quality standards for materials, manufacturing and processing ensure minimum life cycle costs (LCC) for the MAN Lion’s Intercity:
At the ready when you need them. Always. MAN safety and driver assistance systems are with you every step of the way, providing the safety and comfort that helps you get your passengers to their destination.
