Stuttgart/Rottweil. Starting the new year with Setra. With the acquisition of three ComfortClass vehicles, hauser.reisen GmbH in Rottweil has fully converted its fleet to the Setra brand. An order for a total of 18 coaches has now been concluded, with two S 516 HD and one S 519 HD. For Axel Keller, who is the third generation to run the Swabian family-owned company founded in 1948, it's a proud moment: “This has allowed us to reach our goal of establishing a homogeneous fleet of vehicles whose technology and characteristics are familiar to all drivers.”

The 14.9 meter-long S 519 HD with a total of 52 seats will be used for short trips and cruise transfers among others. The 5-star S 516 HD, which has a total of 42 seats, will be used throughout Europe for tourist trips organized by the company itself. Setra coaches are equipped with leather seats, rear kitchens and tinted windows that allow through only ten percent of the incoming light. The term of the vehicles, which are also fitted with state-of-the-art driver assistance systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control ABA4, is a maximum of four years.
