Key Features

1. Foton Cummins ISF2.8 Diesel Engine – The heart of this 14 seater minibus for sale is the globally proven ISF2.8. With 96 kW and 280 Nm of torque, it provides effortless pulling power for fully loaded group transport. The 14 passenger diesel minibus achieves outstanding fuel economy – typically 10–12 L/100 km.

2. Euro II Emission Standard – Unlike Euro IV/V engines, this foton view cs2 for sale with Euro II calibration can run on diesel fuel with higher sulfur content (up to 500 ppm). This makes it ideal for remote areas, developing countries, and regions where low-sulfur diesel is unavailable.

3. 14-Seat Premium Configuration – With only 14 seats (instead of 15 or 16), this shuttle minibus 14 seats offers superior legroom and wider seats. Perfect for group transport where passenger comfort is prioritized over maximum capacity.

4. High Roof for Standing Comfort – At 2285 mm overall height, this high roof minibus 14 seat allows passengers to stand upright in the aisle. No stooping – ideal for quick boarding, elderly passengers, or luggage handling.

5. 5-Speed Manual Transmission – The Zhongma 038J2 14 seater minibus manual gearbox is rugged, precise, and economical. The 3.9 drive axle ratio is optimized for mixed routes, balancing city acceleration with highway fuel economy.

6. ABS+EBD Safety System – This minibus with abs and ebd combines anti-lock braking with electronic brakeforce distribution. ABS prevents wheel lockup during panic stops; EBD balances brake force based on load – critical safety for a group transport minibus.

7. Factory Right Hand Drive (RHD) – Built as a genuine right hand drive minibus – no aftermarket conversions. Dashboard, pedals, steering column, wipers, and mirrors are all RHD-specific for optimal ergonomics and safety.

8. All-Weather Rear Visibility Package – Rear defroster clears condensation, rear wiper handles rain and mud, and ground view mirror eliminates blind spots directly behind the bus. Safe reversing in crowded bus depots or hotel driveways.

9. Full Trim Interior – Durable, easy-to-clean upholstery on all 14 seats. Full trim headliner and side panels provide better insulation and a professional appearance for commercial fleets.

10. Fuel-Efficient Gearing & Large Tank – The 3.9 axle ratio keeps engine RPM low at highway speeds, reducing fuel consumption and noise. The 65L tank provides a realistic range of 500–650 km, minimizing refueling stops on long tours.

Application

FAQ

       Q1: Is this a genuine right hand drive minibus or a conversion?

• It is a factory-original right hand drive minibus. The dashboard, pedal box, steering column, wiper linkages, and mirror geometry are all designed for RHD from the start. No aftermarket conversion is involved.

  Q2: Why does this 14 passenger diesel minibus have Euro II emission standard?

• The ISF2.8s2129P is calibrated to Euro II standards. This is intentional – Euro II engines can run on diesel fuel with higher sulfur content (up to 500 ppm), which is still common in many developing countries, remote areas, and some African, South American, and Southeast Asian markets. It also eliminates the need for DPF (diesel particulate filter) and AdBlue, reducing maintenance costs and complexity.

  Q3: Does this foton view cs2 for sale have air conditioning?

• The base specification as shown does not include air conditioning. However, front A/C is available as a factory option, and front + rear A/C can be ordered for full cabin cooling. Please specify your climate requirements when ordering – we can equip the vehicle accordingly.

  Q4: What is the real-world fuel consumption of this 14 seater minibus manual?

• Under typical group transport conditions (mixed city/highway, moderate load), expect 10–12 L/100 km (approx. 23–28 mpg UK). On long highway runs at 90 km/h, consumption can drop to 9 L/100 km (31 mpg UK). The 65L fuel tank provides a realistic range of 500–650 km.

  Q5: What is the payload capacity with 14 people on board?

• GVW is 3400 kg, curb weight is 2255 kg, leaving 1145 kg payload. With 14 persons (driver + 13 passengers) at 75 kg each = 1050 kg, that leaves 95 kg for luggage – sufficient for day trips or airport transfers with light bags. For heavier luggage, you can remove the last seat row (convert to 11-seat) to free up cargo volume.

  Q6: Does this high roof minibus 14 seat come with 3-point seat belts?

• The specification does not explicitly list 3-point belts, but factory standard for this model includes lap-sash (three-point) belts for the driver and front passenger. Rear passenger seats typically have lap belts unless specified otherwise. For fleet use requiring 3-point belts on all seats, please request the safety pack option at order.

  Q7: How reliable is the Foton Cummins ISF2.8 engine in a group transport minibus?

• Extremely reliable. The ISF2.8 is a global platform used in millions of light commercial vehicles worldwide. Service intervals: engine oil & filter every 10,000 km (or 6 months); fuel filter every 20,000 km; valve clearance check every 50,000 km. With proper maintenance, these engines regularly exceed 300,000 km before major overhaul.

  Q8: What is the difference between this 14 seater minibus for sale and a 16-seater?

• This shuttle minibus 14 seats has one less row of seats (or a different layout), providing approximately 150–200 mm more legroom per passenger and additional luggage space behind the last row. The high roof and overall dimensions are identical. For group transport where passenger comfort is prioritized over maximum headcount, the 14-seater is superior.

  Q9: Does the high roof cause any clearance issues?

• The overall height is 2285 mm (2.285 m). Most covered car parks and older urban underpasses have clearance of 2.0–2.1 m, so this high roof minibus 14 seat will not fit. It is designed for group transport minibus routes with open-air stops, surface parking, or purpose-built bus depots. For routes with low obstacles, a standard roof version is available.

  Q10: Where can I buy this foton view cs2 14 seater in RHD markets?

• We export directly to RHD countries. For the UK, the vehicle requires IVA (Individual Vehicle Approval) – we provide all compliance documents. For Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and Southeast Asian nations, Foton has authorized dealer networks. We also supply directly to fleet buyers. Lead time: 6–8 weeks from order.
