From the comfort of an air suspended seat, drivers have excellent visibility to the front, sides and through the ergonomically located mirrors, the rear.

Add to the atmosphere.

With the variety of climate systems available for Cheetah, you are in control of the environment, whatever the weather outside. With convector heating as standard, you can specify full air-conditioning in addition or integrate the heating and cooling into one compact and lightweight package.

Best for the operator

Operators will relish the reliability of the renowned Mercedes Benz Vario chassis, a true classic which offers economy and practicality approaching legendary proportions. Combine this with the build quality and aftercare for which Plaxton have become renowned, add the maximum capacity of 33 passengers in air-conditioned comfort and Cheetah is off to a flying start.

Contemporary style.
Outside, Cheetah has a stunning and unmistakable profile. When you draw up with something this distinctive, your customers will really stand up and take notice. Once inside, theyll find things equally exciting. Attention to detail and contemporary design gives the cabin a sleek modern appearance which is both eyecatching but still extremely practical.

Driving forward.

Once again attention to detail has been high on our list of priorities and the controls are laid out in a logical and easy to use fashion.

Comfort and safety hand in hand.
