The most distinct difference between 5.5m and 6m buses lies on passenger capacity and bus load. There are nineteen seats for 6m bus while there are 15-17 seats for 5.5m bus model. Usually there are not so many passengers in countryside lines, and maybe it is not a good way to have so many seats on the bus model. And it will take more time for driver to wait for passengers to get into the bus, said Zhang Jianguo, person in charge of Dongfeng Sales Department. And it can also have nineten seats for 5.5m bus model by adding front hang.
