3 With people always in the foreground Welcome to the Setra family Our commitment to building the best coaches goes back almost as far as the history of the coach itself. A first milestone was reached over 60 years ago when a breakthrough idea the introduction of Setra s self-supporting construction met with great success. Still today, a passion for ongoing improvement, our long-standing experience and our exceptionally high standards of excellence continue to shape the whole coach and bus sector. Back then, just like today, this means more than simply building the best coach technically possible. Instead, we focus our attention, first and foremost, on people for every new development: on your passengers, your driver and of course on you as an entrepreneur. Today, this approach results in coaches that make travelling an experience in itself. Buses that win the enthusiasm of their drivers, motivate them and even instil them with pride. And not least of all, vehicles that constitute a positive investment for you as an entrepreneur. This also will remain so in the future. Best in Class 3

5 Overland excellence The MultiClass 400 Overland At home on overland routes, a pleasure to behold on shuttle and occasional runs, and no stranger even to excursions: with a broadly diversified range of models and exemplary flexibility, Setra combines MultiClass scheduled service quality and travelling comfort in a pleasantly economical manner. Convincing overall cost-efficiency is the ultimate result of its favourable cost of investment, its economical operating and maintenance costs and the usual high retention of value of a Setra. Its high safety standards are just as perfectly harmonised with the application opportunities of the MultiClass as its comprehensive range of comfort features. As you see, there are now compelling reasons to come on board. For example, the MultiClass offering, on the road for you seven days a week on scheduled runs and on excursions driving you into the profit zone with greater speed. Furthermore, its variable features allow you to adapt it with complete flexibility to suit your requirements and special purposes. Not least of all, the design in the coach category and Setra s exemplary Premium Services also speak for themselves. Welcome to Setra! MultiClass 5

6 MultiClass the name says it all The class of infinite opportunities Just one look at the widely diversified vehicle fleet offering and it is obvious that the MultiClass lives up to its name. From the overland service to excursion runs, it is ideal for practically everything. In addition to its excellent economy, appropriate safety features and all the comfort one could wish for on the road, it is multitalented in every sense. By the way, the MultiClass 400 Overland is also safe in terms of what the future has to offer. Beginning in early 2013, it will also be available with Euro VI technology, over and above the standard-series Euro V engine. Application that knows no bounds. From the compact 11-metre bus to the top model with 69 seats: MultiClass offers a level of model diversity that leaves nothing to be desired. With seven models and far-reaching customisation options, its areas of application are practically infinite. You decide for yourself whether your MultiClass is to be functional or rather have the character of a coach. For the perfect combination of variability and comfort, look no further than the S 415 H and S 416 H, which boast generous baggage holds, interiors without wheel houses as well as special features designed for the best possible hybrid operation. All models offer you the choice of a functional straight front for scheduled runs and the dynamic slanted front which gives it the character of a coach.* Uncompromising economy. With a coach as flexible as the MultiClass in terms of application, one can also count on the very best of results with regard to economy. In addition to a convincing price/ performance ratio, MultiClass is a shining example with economical lifecycle costs. Add to this its high quality in terms of materials and workmanship which helps ensure a high retention of value and all with a high level of overall cost-efficiency. The very latest in safety. MultiClass has been given a range of modern systems for passive and active safety. In addition to ABS and TCS, these include the optional Electronic Stability Programme ESP. More protection for your driver also means more security for your company. * Not included with S 415 H and S 416 H 6 MultiClass

8 The double earner The best economics MultiClass has a lot going for it in terms of economy: for example, advanced EEV engines or, beginning in early 2013, Euro VI engines, corrosion protection resulting from cathodic dip painting (CDP) and consumption-optimised transmissions. MultiClass is a bus for everyday use in the best sense. Serving on overland routes from Monday to Friday, it can be used for lucrative excursions at weekends and is a sought after double earner. To ensure that this pays off even faster, we have reduced the time required for servicing as well as the costs for maintenance and operation for the MultiClass to an absolute minimum in addition to increasing the ease of maintenance. Precise adaptation of the features to suit your application requirements contributes to its economy. Everything that is attractive in a coach can also be installed in the overland MultiClass: from the WC, comfortable bus seats and a perfectly integrated kitchen area all the way to the dynamic slanted coach front*. The excellent overall cost-efficiency of the MultiClass results to a great extent from its renowned quality, which gives it a particularly long service life and makes its resale value pleasantly high: quality that pays off in the best sense. * Restrictions in the case of S 415 H and S 416 H 8 Economy

10 Technology that pays off Economy under the bonnet and on the bottom line The overland MultiClass is a vehicle with a promising future in many regards. Its BlueTec EEV aggregates meet the voluntary EEV emissions standard, even without a diesel particle filter, therefore exceeding the Euro V standard for emissions quality. At the same time, foregoing the particle filter results in tangibly lower maintenance and operating costs. Looking ahead to anticipated regulatory requirements, would you like to be optimally prepared for the future today? Then, instead of the Euro V engine, opt for innovative Euro VI technology. You can not only choose your engine from an extensive selection, you also have a choice between different possibilities in terms of your transmission from the automatic through to the high-performance PowerShift transmission. The ZF-RAS trailing axle provides active steering support for more than just added comfort offering, for instance, easier manoeuvring, smaller turning circles and improved straight driving. It also reduces wear and tear on tyres. A further plus with regard to economy is provided by the modern cathodic dip painting (CDP) and undercarriage protection of the MultiClass with several components (also standard): excellent preventive care for a long bus life. * You ll find more detailed information on the technical specifications and equipment for Euro V and Euro VI engines in a separate folder called Specifications and in our special Euro VI brochure. 10 Economy

12 Comfort tailored to your passengers A pleasant trip With its dynamic slanted coach front, the MultiClass is immediately seen as an elegant coach. Its interior likewise holds its own in any comparison. MultiClass scores top points, meeting your every wish with first-rate comfort, features for excursions, harmonious colours and shapes and a marvellous feeling of spaciousness including panorama views. In terms of seats, you cannot only select from a variety of models and many high-quality seat covers you can also opt for seat features to match your specific requirements. All travel seats feature suspension seat cushions and intuitive operation to ensure maximum comfort and convenience. Service sets and optimised air-conditioning are available to round off the travel features. 12 Comfort

13 With your specific needs in mind Whether overland or touring: a MultiClass vehicle holds its own in any comparison with regard to comfort and features. It offers high-level features for scheduled runs that can be tailored to suit your individual needs with numerous options. You can, for example, choose door sizes, ComAir air-conditioning and technology for the destination indicator which precisely suit your main application. Thanks to its weight-optimised design, the sturdy scheduled service seating is surprisingly light. This saves not only fuel but also increases the number of passengers that you can accommodate. A space for prams or wheelchairs fits perfectly into the design concept. Comfort 13

14 The ideal guide When the driver becomes a tour guide The comfort that awaits the driver in the MultiClass cockpit is perfectly adapted to suit this special purpose. It supports the driver not only at bus stops but also on long trips. Even on extended excursions, excellent conditions are given for high levels of concentration and relaxed driving. A refrigeration unit and a joystick for shifting are ergonomically integrated in the cockpit with particular practicality, along with many generous storage compartments and trays which keep everything neat and tidy. It is possible to remove the fare box prior to an excursion just as easily as you can put it in for scheduled runs: just one of many examples of the unparalleled flexibility of the MultiClass. 14 Comfort

15 Ergonomic right down the line The greater your driver s concentration and safety, the better it is for your passengers and for your company. This applies equally to scheduled runs as well as excursions. Consequently, we have made ergonomic design a priority for the functional scheduled service cockpit, which is evident, for example, in the extensive adjustment options and settings for the driver s seat. An intelligent multifunction display, centrally positioned in the driver s field of vision, provides easily legible information on critical data and occurrences in addition to serving for the purpose of onboard diagnosis. Many other details in and around the cockpit show just how flexible the MultiClass is. Comfort 15

16 Your very own special MultiClass Your Setra tailored to precision Only a coach which is completely tailored to suit its special purpose, your own requirements and the needs of your passengers will be able to perfectly meet all expectations. This paves the way directly to the profit zone.

It starts with a wide range of feature options. We adapt materials and workmanship with exactitude to the respective application focus: with top durability and top quality.

18 That good feeling of all-round safety Appropriate protection for driver and passengers The name Setra has always stood for high-level safety standards in coach building. The vision behind this also applies to the MultiClass tailored to your specific application. Its holistic safety concept, whose elements are interlinked across all vehicle components, includes various active and passive systems, for instance, which support the driver in critical situations and minimise the consequences should an accident occur. This makes it possible for the driver and passengers to enjoy that good feeling of travelling in safety. Making driving easier. For example, with a consistently ergonomic cockpit design for optimum operating comfort and a high level of user safety. Improving perception. Modern mirror systems and powerful lighting equipment such as Litronic Xenon lights further increase the high protection potential. Supporting reactions. For instance, with the Electronic Stability Programme (ESP ) which is available on many models. It tangibly reduces the risk of skidding, while the standard-series anti-blocking system (ABS) and optional traction control system (ASR) in the overland MultiClass 400 ensure safe braking and starting. Minimising damages. Passenger safety is increased since less standing room is available: the more seats there are, the greater the protection. And this is even more the case since our seats have been tested in crash situations. The grips are just as accessible as the passenger stop buttons. And the MultiClass integrated roll bars ensure additional passive safety. Further safety features are the front axle with single wheel suspension as well as a chassis technology that corresponds to that of Setra touring coaches: both of which are a real plus in terms of comfort and safety. 18 Safety

19 The Electronic Stability Programme (ESP ) is an active system for increasing driving safety and driving stability. It tangibly reduces the risk of skidding when navigating curves and taking evasive action. Even in situations which experienced professional drivers could not contend with. The passenger stop buttons also contribute to the high level of safety of the overland MultiClass. Not only are they available in large numbers, but they are easy to access from almost every part of the compartment.
