The Van Hool Acron is a high-floor, single-deck touring coach name used by the Belgian manufacturer Van Hool across several generations of its coach platforms, the taller sibling of the standard-height Alicron. French site transbus.org traces the line to the T815 Acron shown in 1979, and says the T15 Acron of 2023 succeeded the TX15 Acron, which was built from 2012 to 2019. The 2022 T range offered the Acron in four lengths from 10 to 14 metres, with seating for 47 to 65 passengers, and the T15 used a six-cylinder DAF MX11 engine of 300 or 330 kW with a ZF gearbox. The T11 version was no longer sold after Van Hool went bankrupt in April 2024.
