Mercedes-Benz Tourismo withnew seats




New generation of touring coach seats
The design of the new seats is both attractive and
practical. Aluminium is used for the side trim, for
example, providing an overall stylish, high-quality
and lightweight finish. Lateral adjustment of the
aisle seats and adjustment of the backrest angle is
effortless and intuitive, thanks to a large and
clearly marked rocker-type switch.
The armrest on the new seats is not only
elegantly designed, but also has a generous and
ergonomically contoured surface. The very
straightforward pivoting mechanism used for
folding away the arm rest is a patented design
that could hardly be simpler to use. The seat
backrests and cushions have also been
recontoured. For the first time, the seat cushion
rests on a sprung system and can be easily
removed for cleaning or repairs.


Modular system allows almost unlimited
choice
The optional contrasting top-stitching for the new
upholstery allows for a multitude of different
combinations of colour, shape and material,
resulting in an even more high-quality
appearance and the possibility of more
individualised appointments. The modular
system means that the choices are virtually
unlimited. For vehicles used in regular-service
operations as well as for excursion travel, the
developers have designed both folding cinema-
style seats and swivel seats.
A steeper backrest angle in the starting position
makes standing up much simpler for passengers.
The aisle-side location of seat belt buckles on all
seats is a new feature that makes them easier to
use for passengers sitting next to the window,
whilst also facilitating access for the rescue
services in the event of an accident.
The seat frame is based on a lightweight
aluminium twin-tube design which, in
conjunction with a new mounting for the gas
springs, prevents irritating seat vibrations when
the bus is driven without passengers on board.
The use of lightweight materials has substantially
reduced the weight of each double seat. In a
12-metre-long three-star touring coach the
reduction amounts to around 70 kg
