Big Nose School Bus Debuts at Shanghai Auto Show


According to the "Morning Morning Post" report, in the family car, super sports car and many new cars, the appearance of the "big nose" school bus at the Shanghai Auto Show attracted the attention of many children, parents and dealers. The auto show has a number of school buses including Liberation, Foton, Jianghuai, and other brands participating in the exhibition. Invariably, the bright yellow body design was adopted to strengthen the safety protection. The price was between 200,000 yuan and 400,000 yuan.


Safety reference school bus national standard

The reporter saw at the scene that the new school bus can generally accommodate 34 students, plus two teachers and one driver. Most of the designs use the “big nose” shape. An automotive design engineer told the reporter that this is due to the requirement in the new national standard that “special school buses should be provided with a collision safety structure” in front of them and put forward requirements for safety. Therefore, the new school bus models participating in the exhibition are mainly long school buses, which can reduce the probability that the front row students and drivers will be hit in the event of an accident.

In addition, the design of the new school bus has also been adjusted according to the “Guidelines for the appearance of school buses” of the new national standard. The reporter saw that there was a clear "school bus" and reflective strip on the body of a school bus. The car was equipped with two emergency windows. The roof had another escape window, and there was an emergency door behind the car. Each seat is equipped with a seat belt. It needs the help of a teacher to open it, which can prevent pupils from misoperation. The car is also equipped with a camera, driving recorder to feedback the status of the vehicle at any time.

Design should also be more humane

At the school bus booth, the reporter also saw the parents who took the children to experience the school bus. They generally praised the “big nose” school bus, but also put forward some suggestions for improvement.

The audience, Mr. Zhao, was very concerned about the problem of school buses. He told reporters that the school cars used by his son’s kindergarten are relatively old-fashioned, with small bodies, short heads, and small seat spacing. For the school's "big nose" school bus, he valued the speed limit of school buses and the deployment of seat belts. “The speed limits and seat belts for school buses in the United States are mandatory, and domestic school buses should also be designed in accordance with such standards, and safety is guaranteed.” He also pointed out that the current school bus sales are smaller than regular minibuses. The price is not cheap, and not all schools are willing to pay for such a new school bus. “The seat is a bit narrow.” The pupil Lin Lin sat on a school bus with great interest. He told reporters that his size was medium in the class, but some “big nose” school buses designed three seats, front and rear rows. The distance is also very close, feeling a bit crowded.

Another school bus purchaser pointed out after visiting several school buses that there were no schoolbags taken into account in the car body design. Some areas where no schoolbags were placed, some were designed with schoolbags, but the capacity was too small and the details needed to be improved.
