Ikarbus IK-104

The Ikarbus IK-104 is a standard city solo bus built by the Serbian manufacturer Ikarbus of Zemun, with production starting in 1994. It was developed together with the IK-101, IK-102, IK-103 and IK-105, similar designs that differed in engine and its position; the IK-104 was first offered with a Raba engine at the rear, while the IK-101 had a MAN engine in the middle, the IK-102 a Raba engine in the middle, the IK-103 MAN and Mercedes engines at the rear and the IK-105 a Mercedes engine at the rear. In time it was withdrawn from production in favour of the more successful and more numerous IK-103, though it still runs for transport companies across Serbia and some vehicles were exported to Russia. Variants include the suburban IK-104P with 51 seats and two single-leaf doors, also used by the Serbian Army, and the IK-104 CNG, the first compressed-natural-gas bus built in Yugoslavia, of which a single prototype was sold in 2000.
