Stagecoach 10901

InterConnect 10901 arriving into Lincoln on the 100 from Gainsborough on 9.3.20

 

One thing I have noticed with E400 MMCs and similar Euro 6 buses is that they produce a hell of a lot of heat from the engine compartment, since visible heat haze isn't uncommon in photos (you can see it here across the front of the DAF truck).

 

The engines run hotter to achieve complete combustion of the fuel and a cleaner burn, meaning there are less pollutants and particulate being emitted from the exhaust, helped of course by systems such as AdBlue and particulate traps.

 

Both E400 and E200 MMCs have grilles on both sides and the rear, so they must have beefier cooling systems to cope with the extra heat compared to, say, a Pointer Dart which only has a radiator grille on the offside.
