Van Hool Alicron

Buses and Road Mass Transit Vehicles

The Van Hool Alicron is the standard-height, single-deck touring coach name in the range of the Belgian manufacturer Van Hool, one of a family of coach names such as Acron and Astron that share a platform and differ in floor height and luggage space. The name was used on the T8 coaches of the late twentieth century and carried on through the T9 and TX series; transbus.org lists the TX16 Alicron as built from 2012 to 2018. The T Alicron was presented in Brussels in November 2022 in lengths of 12 and 13 metres, with a DAF Euro 6 engine and a ZF Traxon gearbox, and seating for 55 or 59 passengers. The series was no longer sold after Van Hool went bankrupt in April 2024.
