Ikarus 280

It is made of two rigid sections linked by a pivoting joint.

[a] It powers the middle axle, meaning that the bus has puller configuration.

[b] Either an automatic or a manual gearbox was installed that allowed a top speed of 65 to 90 kilometres per hour (40 to 56 mph).

The manual gearboxes came in either five- or six-speed configuration, and were mated with a dry single-disc clutch.

[2] The buses, in actual applications, have a minimum of 26 seats, and space for up to 134 additional standing passengers.
