Mercedes-Benz Cito

The Cito, coded O520, was a low-floor midibus that EvoBus built for Continental Europe between 1999 and 2003, in the DaimlerChrysler years. It was unusual for a bus of its time in having a diesel-electric transmission, and the plan was to add a hybrid engine or a fuel cell at a later stage. The diesel engine sat above the rear axle. It came in three lengths of 8,100, 8,900 and 9,600 millimetres, with a width of 2,350 millimetres, and carried 31, 34 or 38 passengers according to the length. It was replaced in 2006 by the short-wheelbase Mercedes-Benz Citaro K.
