United Bus

United Bus

United Bus was a bus manufacturing group created in 1990 which consisted of Den Oudsten (Netherlands), DAF Bus (Netherlands), BOVA (Netherlands), Optare (UK), and DAB (Denmark).

Collaborations

The collaboration between DAF and Optare led to the introduction of the DAF DB250 double-decker with Optare Spectra bodywork. This was the first partly low-floor double-decker and set the standard for future developments.

Demise

United Bus failed in 1993, though the partners survived independently.
