Van Hool EX series
Van Hool EX16L in Digne-les-Bains
Van Hool EX is a series of intercity high-floor buses developed and produced by the Belgian company Van Hool NV between 2013 and 2024.
The EX11H bus is one of the models that has expanded the EX range, which at the time of its introduction in 2015 included only three variants. The EX11 is the replacement for the TX11 Alicron model, which is currently discontinued. The model range includes two versions: EX11L and EX11H (raised).
In 2019, Van Hool expanded its EX range with L-series models, including the EX11L, EX15L and EX16L. In 2020, the company introduced the EX16MF variant, which can carry up to 63 passengers.
In France, the most popular model is the EX16M. These buses are usually used on regular routes in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur regions.
Description
The EX series buses have a simpler appearance compared to the TX series: they do not have a metal line under the windows, and their floor is lower than in the M series.
In 2017, the model was restyled: the rear of the car was changed, and a short chrome strip appeared on the front of the sidewalls. The air conditioner on the roof has become more aerodynamic.
The bus can be equipped with a lift for people with disabilities, which is located near the middle door. In this case, the bus becomes higher and wider.
