I have mixed views about the design but it's not as bad as I thought
it might be.

It would be a good looking mayor if only it combed its hair.

I quite like the look, but wonder if the engine has enough space? It
appears to be under the rear staircase, but there doesn't seem to be
enough room for a hybrid engine (ie, lots of batteries) with adequate
cooling. The last thing we want is another self-immolating bus!

Is there any room for seating on the lower level? Those doors and
stairwells take space. I can see seating for the elderly and infirm
being limited.

At least it isn't a pastiche, like the competition entires, although
the rear dome looks rather exaggerated to me, something like the
Viberti double deckers Turin used in the 1960s.

I think those look stupid from the outside, but inside are the most
comfortable.

Take away the silly "smiling face" and they don't look at all bad.
