80 King Long School Buses Exported to Saudi Arabia
Jun 28 , 2022
Recently, 80 units King Long XMQ6898Y
school buses are well lined at Xiamen Habor, ready for shipping to their
destination in Saudi Arabia. From Jan. to Apr. this year, King Long has
successfully won an order of 300 units buses from Saudi Arabia. The bus maker
is expecting to make a new splash in the middle-east nation.
Measuring 8.9 meters in length, King Long XMQ6898Y school buses are all clothed
in yellow color, the international standard for school buses. In response to
the special road conditions in Saudi Arabia, which has comparatively more
number of deceleration strips, King Long has made a number of special
adjustments, such as making the approach angle smaller, increasing the height
of the vehicle and the the height of the steps on the vehicle. In doing so, the
vehicles are less likely to suffer wear and tear. Moreover, the vehicle boasts
optimized interior design, catering to the special needs and requirements of
students.
According to King Long, the batch of school buses is purchased by the Ministry
of Education and will start working officially in May this year.
Simon Xie, King Long's Overseas Sales & Marketing Director, reveals that
the bus maker has successfully made its way into the school bus market in Saudi
Arabia. "As the oil-rich country is planning to replace thousands of school
buses in the next few years, we are confident that our quality products will
surely win our customers over in Saudi Arabia,” says Mr. Xie.
