About
Volvo has been a popular marque since entering the UK market in the 1970s. The manufacturer’s current bus line-up includes the BZL electric double- and single-deck model, alongside the MCV-bodied EvoSeti high capacity double-decker (available with air-conditioning as an option) and the heavyweight Evora single-decker. Volvo says it expects to have Evoras available from stock in early 2026, and EvoSetis available from stock around May 2026.
Its coach line-up currently includes the MCV Evotor, available with 53 seats and WC, or 57 seats without WC, and in PSVAR format. The forthcoming B13R-based Unvi XL is expected to be available from late 2026. Volvo advises that the next production slots for its 9700DD double-decker are expected to be in 2027.
