The new MultiClass 500 has many characteristics that make it valuable for your fleet. With its flexibility, it is at home on city and intercity routes.

Intercity and city buses, school buses or employee shuttles – the Setra MultiClass 500 can be many things for you. Configure the LE models to suit your needs – city or intercity – with different entrances and seating, with or without platforms. With the weight-optimised design, improved aerodynamics and advanced drive technologies, the LE models are an economic benefit for your fleet. Modern assistance systems increase safety. The open standards ITxPT and IBIS-IP enable simple interoperability between IT systems in local public transport. The MultiClass 500 also sets visual standards with its iconic design language and stylish interior design.

LE stands for Low-Entry and is part of the Setra MultiClass 500 programme. The multifunctional vehicle concept makes the LE models both comfortable and economical at the same time. LE means maximum comfort for your passengers: stepless low-floor entry convenience in the front and high-floor travel comfort in the rear. For the driver, LE means being confident and safe on the road: optimally supported by innovative assistance systems. And for companies, LE means maximum economic efficiency: a scheduled-service bus optimised for tenders in accordance with Class 1 and Class 2 in conjunction with service-friendly large-series units, also available as a hybrid model. The efficient modular system – consisting of a front and rear overhang as well as two wheelbases – enables vehicle concepts with various door variants. With its wide range of models – from the compact S 510 LE, the versatile S 515 LE and S 516 LE to the seat-optimised S 518 LE – the MultiClass 500 offers the right solution for every low-entry requirement. The well thought-out interior concept offers space for individual platform arrangements. The seating can also be configured to suit the application – from functional to comfortable. When it comes to motorisation, you benefit from a powertrain that can be configured in many different ways. And for the driver’s workplace, you have three cockpit versions to choose from, covering the entire spectrum from urban to intercity transport. The range of assistance systems such as Sideguard Assist 2, intelligent cruise control Predictive Powertrain Control (PPC) or the active brake assistant Predictive Brake Assist 2 is impressive. Just like the new iconic design, which exudes Setra charm from the striking brand look to the rear lights.
