Voltorb Kinetics is a busbuilder that creates buses inspired by European Integral Buses and buses in Singapore. Our Products are mainly inspired by the MAN Lion's City and Mercedes-Benz Citaro range, with styling elements inspired from the Gen 4 Solaris Urbino and Scania Citywide range.

To get a bus of your own, contact Hightech_TR. Buses are leased free of charge as he does not have a license to sell buses from Voltorb Kinetics yet.

History

Voltorb Kinetics was created when aviaracer felt that there was a need to inject some competition in the bus market. The name 'Voltorb' was chosen as it tells of a person that is usually introverted but when triggered, would be very powerful. It means that all Voltorb products are quiet for a peaceful city, but powerful to tackle any obstacles in the way. Although there is no relation to the Pokemon character, the future Company Logo might use a Voltorb emblem.

In Jan 2021, when aviaracer had been inactive for 3 years, Hightech_TR acquired the company under an inactive asset transfer. However, the buses were designed by aviaracer and possess intellectual property rights. As he does not have the license to sell these buses yet, they are currently being leased free of charge.

The metroCITY I range was renamed to the metroSUB range, while the metroCITY LE range was renamed to metroKUB.

Products

There are currently 3 ranges of Voltorb buses available. They may or may not be customised to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) as listed below. A CNG bus looks like this:
