In Vantaa, Finland (Carrus Oy Wiima) the 12-metre version was built, in addition to some customized lengths.
By this time only 43 7000s had been delivered to customers in Finland, in addition to a handful of demonstrators for various countries.
The front was changed with a "grille" and new headlights, and the rear end got a "lump" at the top and new taillights.
There were two prototypes and then 100 buses for public operator DKV in Debrecen.
In addition a batch of 40 Volvo 7700A were delivered to DKV the same year, being specially adapted, they were rebranded as Alfa Cívis 18.
BKV have later bought both 7700 and 7700A second hand, and operated a few leased Alfa Cívis 12s.
[8] BBA in North Brabant, later Veolia Transport Nederland, received in 2004 a batch of 35 (#250-256, #3801-3828) 7700s, and a further 114 (#3829-3942) 7700s and 48 (#5811-5858) 7700As of the new B9L/B9LA type in 2006–2007.
This is mostly because full low-floor buses have not been much popular there compared to the low-entry ones.
It was never really sold to any customer, and was only rented out for shorter periods to different operators.
Also in January 2012, two of the 2008 prototypes went into a one-year test run for Boreal Transport in Finnmark, with at least one of them serving as citybus in Alta.
Volvo did not win the bid, and if they had, the serial production would most likely have been built as 7900A.
In 2012, Mexico City Metrobús line 4 was inaugurated with 54 12-metre Volvo 7700 buses.
