Skyliner

ViP Class
b u i lt o f h i g h l i g h t s
If you invented the double-decker Tourist coach, why not invent it again.
In 1967 NEOPLAN created the double-decker touring class, so it can look back on an unparalleled success story: to date more than 4000 Skyliners have taken to the road worldwide. Reason enough to invent this classic all over again to build it of highlights throughout. The new Skyliner opens up a unique dimension in luxury VIP travel on two levels, setting whole new standards in comfort, dynamism and innovation. Some of the equipment shown or described in this brochure is not included as standard.
Experience doubled two worlds in one coach
Actually a Skyliner is two coaches. Because the up and down split in concept enables an entirely new travel experience on two levels. So you can change between the gregarious atmosphere of a bistro downstairs and the relaxation of a vista platform upstairs. Attract new clientele through an innovative travel concept that starts by making time on the road already an unforgettable and individual experience.

Comfort doubled for twice the travel enjoyment
The skylight concept on the top deck of the Skyliner creates perfect vision and brightness. The skylight in the roof dome turns the front row into a mobile panoramic terrace. The optimal standing height and spacious racks make the top deck an exclusive travel zone. On the bottom deck light floods into the bus through extra quarter windows behind the doors. The drivers workplace is closed off by a transparent wall, creating more light in the interior and brightening the access to the upper deck.
A perfect view with its own climate zone.

Now the usual air-conditioning in the rear only services the upper deck, while the lower deck has two evaporators of its own. Thanks to the dual-zone system the temperatures on upper and lower decks can be separately regulated even better than before.
The Skyliner is the absolute highlight of any fleet.
Dynamic, perfect in its lines, simply breathtaking the new Skyliner attracts attention wherever it goes. Especially striking are the forward thrusting window pillars and the split windscreen. New style elements such as the visor look of the front body, dynamically angled wheel arches and chromed clear-glass headlights secure the Skyliner a place in the NEOPLAN VIP CLASS. With its accomplished mix of curves and edges such as the diamond cut of the windows along the edge of the roof and its smooth consistent lines, the Skyliner is truly perfection of the prizewinning Sharp Cut Design.

On the Skyliner the two decks are separated optically and formally on the front screen by a cladded and lacquered band, flowing together again on the front body.
Despite 13.99 meters length and 4 meters height, the curve of the top front screen, the rounded tail and the upward inclined skylights give the Skyliner a dynamic and at the same time elegant appearance.
How elegance becomes a business factor.

Unbelievable but true: in wind tunnel tests the Skyliner produces drag coefficient equivalent to that of a modern medium-class van. The sophisticated concept of the aerodynamics cuts fuel consumption quite dramatically, making the Skyliner an extremely economical vehicle. Plus, carbon emissions are reduced as well as wind noise for the occupants. The superior design is consequently not only pleasing to the eye. It is also appreciated by your wallet, by the environment and travellers.
A large front radius, windscreen curved through three dimensions, seamlessly smooth bodywork, doors and hatches set flush and the rear with its lateral taperings and defined separation edge all combine to produce excellent aerodynamic performance.
Safety doubled so much safety in a single coach.
For the first time, active electronically controlled CDS (comfort drive suspension) comes to standard in a double-decker. It increases both driving comfort and driving safety. Electronically controlled dampers react with lightning speed to adjust the hardness and intensity of damping to changing load and driving situations in a matter of milliseconds. The vehicle remains strictly on course through curves and fully loaded.

In this luggage compartment there is simply space for a lot more. Depending on bus configuration there is between nine and eleven cubic meters more space available for passenger luggage. The luggage compartment can be accessed from both sides and, if wished, from the onboard galley too.
The list of standard and optional features ranges from anti-lock braking, braking assistant through electronically controlled braking system and maximum speed control to automatic cruise control and lane guard assistant.
