3 speed Voith box seems strange, especially coupled with the OM936 engine. Would have thought that, since it seems to be designed for more heavy duty work, they'd have put a 6-speed ZF Ecolife in there.

Mind I'm not sure I get the excitement surrounding it. It's a heavy duty single deck which, according to operators, isn't required? Or have they realised that Streetlites and 4-cyl E200s aren't all they made them out to be?
