The Optare Prisma was a single-decker bus body fitted to the Mercedes-Benz O405 chassis and produced between 1995 and 1998. It was one of two Delta-derived single-deck products, with the Sigma, that Optare released after the collapse of United Bus freed it from DAF chassis. The body kept a Mercedes-Benz built front cowl and destination display, while the sides and rear followed the styling of the Delta and Vecta, on an Alusuisse aluminium framework, with an OM447H engine of 157 kW. Tees and District took 25 in late 1995 and East Yorkshire Motor Services 16 between 1996 and 1998. It was discontinued in favour of the integral, low-floor Optare Excel.
