Full Description of bus
The engine of the Dennis Trident was initially the European Union Type II Cummins M11-305E (305 horsepower, displacement 10,800cc), and it was later replaced with the Cummins ISMe-335 engine as the European Union Type III standards were implemented. The engine adopts a rear tandem arrangement and uses the center axis as the driving axis. It is more flexible when turning than a three-axis bus with the rear axis as the driving axis.
