SOR BN 8,5 is a model of a partly low-floor minibus manufactured by Czech company SOR Libchavy. The bus is designed for urban transport and deployed on lines where sufficient vehicles with a smaller capacity are needed due to the cramped conditions of the road infrastructure. It is suitable for service lines to medical and sanitary facilities and offices.
Construction features
Model BN 8,5 is similar to the model SOR CN 8,5, from which it differs mainly with automatic transmission. Vehicles supplied for MHD Chrudim and for public transport in Frýdek-Místek (ČSAD Frýdek-Místek), however, have a mechanical six-speed transmission.
Production and operation
Bus is produced since 2010 until now.
