Customised Scania coach for elite rugby team

The new #scania Glory VIP coach will not go unnoticed in Toulouse. Featuring an unparalleled aesthetic with its black and red body painted in the colours of Stade Toulousain, the coach was customised and ordered from #scania and Beulas by Transports Faur – a specialist in passenger transport in Toulouse – and official carrier of Stade Toulousain #rugby club.

“We wanted a personalised vehicle,” says their manager Lilian Faur. “This new vehicle offers the very best to the Stade Toulousain team: an exceptional coach that matches the club’s ranking in European #rugby.”

“Reliability, robustness, fuel consumption and customer service. For me, there is nothing better than Scania!” Lilian Faur, Manager of Transports Faur

Unique customised coach

Based on a three-axle #scania chassis, one of which is a rear steering axle for manoeuvrability, with a 12-speed gearbox and a 490 hp motor, the camber was remodelled to fit the needs of the club.

There are 41 seats in the coach, instead of the standard 73 seats in the basic version, more than 90 centimetres of legroom, and a seat designed with a spacer that gives an extra 10 centimetres to allow for the players’ wide shoulders.

“With their large frames, standing more than 180 centimetres tall and weighing around
100 kilogrammes on average, the chairs are reinforced all the way to their cushions which have been thickened and extended by 6 centimetres,” adds Stéphane Laurent, Commercial Agent, Beulas.
