Used this model for city transport services. It performed reliably in stop-and-go traffic. The heating system ensured comfort during colder months, a major plus. However, the rear design wasn’t much to admire. Fuel efficiency was within expectations for its size, but accessibility during servicing could be better.

I've driven the Mercedes-Benz Citaro for a bit now, and I must say there are some good features. The driver's cockpit is well laid out, pretty intuitive overall, and the visibility is decent. That said, the suspension is nice for passengers, but it doesn't soften sharper turns from a driver's perspective. Overall, it does the job, but it's not perfect yet.

Operating the Mercedes-Benz Citaro has been quite an experience. The safety features provide peace of mind, especially during busy urban routes. The passenger feedback about the comfort levels has been overwhelmingly positive, though I think the engine noise could be a tad quieter.

So I just got assigned to a new diesel Citaro, and overall it's holding up well. Fuel efficiency is way better than what we used to drive, and the engine's got enough power to not feel sluggish when loaded. It's not the cheapest out there but you can kinda see why, especially with all the safety stuff packed in - adaptive cruise is solid on highways but it gets twitchy in stop-start city traffic, takes some getting used to. The brakes are solid and it's easy to maneuver, which is key for squeezing through traffic, but the side mirrors could be better. I wouldn't mind adjusting the seats more, seats are fine but after a long shift you feel it.

So my depot just got the Citaro Hybrid and I got to say, it looks the same as the standard diesel. The hybrid stuff is all tucked away, can't even spot it unless you’re up top. The fuel saving is there, but honestly, it's not a huge difference unless you cover loads of miles. The best thing for me is you don't need all that special high voltage training for service, so when it needs work, it's not a big drama. The gearbox does a smooth job, feels like the regular ZF EcoLife so you can just drive as usual. Overall, good for day-to-day, but don't expect full-on electric driving-you still get all the normal engine noise from outside.

Been driving the Citaro line for a couple of years now, and I've spent a lot of shifts in the newer electrics too. The best thing for me is definitely the driver's setup, feels like they finally asked what we want: controls are actually where you need em. Visibility is great, so you don't find yourself stretching your neck at every tight corner, especially downtown. I do wish they'd make some tweaks to the info system, though. Sometimes it lags, and real-time data doesn't always sync up, which is annoying when passengers get grumpy. The ride's super smooth though, suspension just eats up all those potholes on older routes. Never ran into anything major with reliability yet, which is a relief cause breakdowns mid-shift are the worst.

So I drove the Citaro 0530 for about a year, mainly on city routes. The best thing for me is the driver's seat, I can set it however I want and it's actually comfortable. The dashboard is super clear, I like how all the controls are right there, don't need to search for anything. Winter heating is just average, takes a bit to warm up the bus, especially on cold mornings. The electric mirrors are easy to adjust and the heating helps, but sometimes the controls are a bit fiddly. Doors are pretty quiet, both opening and closing. The auto gearbox shifts smooth but it's just 4-speed, so cruising at top speed gets noisy. Not a bad bus for daily city work, but the heating part could be better.

Had a chance to run the Citaro for a day. Visibility behind the wheel is top, the mirrors and windows really help with city traffic. Handling's sharp, not much body roll for a big unit and the brakes bite when you need ‘em. The low floor means I didn’t see anyone tripping, easier for prams and wheelchairs. Downside? That back cooling unit sticks out into the cabin - looks weird and chews up space where you’d expect extra seats. Also, the bus is a little wider than locals; honestly, on narrow city lanes I’m a bit more on edge. Still, most things felt put together tight, and service intervals are typical for German rigs. Maintenance contracts help if you can afford ‘em, but parts from Europe might take a while.

I’ve been working with the Citaro Hybrid for a while now. I gotta say, that low-voltage 48V system makes a difference. No stressing about high-voltage issues, so I feel safer poking around if there’s a glitch with the electricals. Driving it, the automatic transmission does all the work and kicks down smooth. The hybrid system doesn’t make the bus sluggish either, but you can feel a bit more weight when it’s packed full. Not much though - most folks wouldn’t notice. The bus charges from braking pretty fast, which is cool, but that electric bit mostly just helps get moving, you won’t see any massive fuel savings right away. Maintenance so far hasn’t been much more hassle than usual, which surprised me. Standard diesel stuff, with a bit extra for the hybrid but nothing wild.

Not gonna lie, the Citaro is just okay. The ramp for wheelchairs works, but wish it was faster to set up. Heater's slow in winter, bus stays cold for a while. The automatic gearbox is reliable, but sometimes I feel like the kickdown is a bit slow when packed on rush hour. Never really had major problems with the brakes or anything, disc setup is strong. Max speed is good enough for city, but it takes like 15 seconds to hit 50 km/h, kinda sluggish when in a hurry. Driver's place is comfy, and it's easy to reach everything, but nothing fancy.
