Ikarbus IK-103

The Ikarbus IK-103 is a standard city solo bus built by the Serbian manufacturer Ikarbus of Zemun, with production starting in 1993. It won an industrial design award at the October Salon in Belgrade and a Chamber of Commerce award for technical improvement in 1993. It was developed alongside the IK-101, IK-102, IK-104 and IK-105, which looked alike and differed in engine and where it sat; the IK-103 was first offered with a MAN or Mercedes engine at the rear. While the others were withdrawn, the IK-103 was refined and remains in the maker's range, its original Euro 2 MAN engine replaced by Euro 3 and later Euro 4 units and its interior redesigned more than once. Current specification gives a length of 11,995 mm, an empty mass of 10,860 kg and a 199 kW MAN diesel. Variants include the suburban IK-103P with 51 seats, the compressed-natural-gas IK-103 CNG and the IK-103F built with FAP of Priboj. It is the most numerous bus in Belgrade public transport.
