Very much a one off where ‘NCT’ explored various ideas for incorporation in future buses.
The angled destination blind to make it easier to see. A single door to only allow one person at a time to board. Double doors at the exit. The very substantial front bumper assembly to protect the driver and reduce frontal collision damage.
