No they brought the Volvo B9TLs because they were an establish and proven vehicle type that suited the fleet and wanted to get as many as they could to the point that they even acquired 4 from dealer stock (6118-6121).

Also bulk discount isn't affected by if a vehicle type is reaching the end of production. Builders offer that just for operators to buy more.
