MAN Lion's Regio

The MAN Lion's Regio is a bus range built by MAN from 2004 to 2017, designed as a combination vehicle suited both to regional intercity service and to excursions and transfers. It was first offered in two lengths, a 12.25 metre two-axle and a 13.9 metre three-axle version, and a 13 metre two-axle version was added in 2006. All of them were built at MAN's bus plant in Ankara, Turkey. The range was discontinued in 2017 because stricter rollover regulations coming into force would have required a complete redesign. The sister brand Neoplan sold the same bus as the Trendliner from 2004 until 2009 and, for the 2013 model year, again as the Jetliner, which ended in 2015. Larger fleets of the Lion's Regio were bought by ÖBB-Postbus, PostAuto Switzerland and the German armed forces.
