- Bus and coach registrations post 8.4% rise in November to 681 units – the month’s highest total since 2007.
- 8,396 buses and coaches registered in 2015 so far, more than a fifth up on last year’s total.
- Fall in converted bus registrations outweighed by strong increases across other key segments.
Mike Hawes, SMMT Chief Executive, said, “Although November saw more moderate growth than in previous months, the UK bus and coach market remains on track for a strong year. One of the year’s big performers, converted buses weighing 3.5t to 8.5t, fell by a third in the month – but with double-digit growth across all other key market segments, the situation remains positive.”
