Buses and Road Mass Transit Vehicles

The Wright Eclipse is a low-floor single-deck bus body built by Wrightbus between 2000 and 2019, named after the solar eclipse visible in the United Kingdom in 1999. It was launched in 2000 on the Volvo B7L chassis to replace the Renown, and from 2003 it was also built on the more popular Volvo B7RLE as the Eclipse Urban, the original becoming the Eclipse Metro. Related versions included the Eclipse Commuter, the high-floor Eclipse SchoolRun for Ulsterbus, the Eclipse 2 of 2008 and the Eclipse 3 of 2015 on the Volvo B8RLE. FirstGroup, Lothian Buses, Arriva and National Express were large UK customers, and Bus Eireann took 48 for Ireland in 2007.
