Ironically I was just thinking about Mercedes and their reputation in the United States as being a luxury car brand because of the fact that they don't sell their own badged cars and trucks here to maintain that.

I would imagine that this bus would be branded as the Orion VIII rather than the Mercedes Citaro because I am betting that more than a few people would care about seing their so-called "luxury car brand" on a transit bus.

It is a nice bus even if it reminds me of the Van Hools a bit. I rode a few in Salzburg, Austria during the summer of 2005. Is this the first time that a Citaro has come to the Americas?
