With the recent introduction of the MAN A95 Batch 4s, which bus do you prefer? The Batch 3 facelift or the Batch 4 Euro 6 buses? Personally my favourite is still the Lion's City DD L (3 Door bus)

One thing I dislike about the Batch 4 Euro 6 models is the fact that they removed the fog lights and replaced it with "placeholders". So Batch 3 for me

If you ask me about exterior wise, Ill still go for the Batch 3. Looks like neither SBS nor SMRT has activated the full side EDS, insteas choosing only to use a small portion, which makes it inferior to the side EDS of the Batch 3s. So batch 3 for me as well✌

I prefer Batch 3 body with double taillights,Euro 6 one too plain.

You mean the fog lights?

Fog lights aside but the rear tailights is very useful as it is functional as brake lights too..

I still prefer batch 3.
The Euro 6 buses front EDS route number all got squeezed to the rightmost corner. When I stand in front at certain angle, I usually cant see the last digit. Worst if the last digit is 1 (eg sv 671, 991) - refer to the photo below.
And I don't like Euro 6 buses side EDS, as it only display for a brief moment when the bus is at the bus-stop. I still prefer the old side EDS content used by Euro 5 buses.
The Euro 6 interior BUS STOPPING sign is also not as user friendly as the Euro 5 ones. End up some passengers keep pressing the bell repeatedly.
However, as Euro 6 buses got 2 wheelchair bays, the front is more spacious and allow more standing space when the bus is crowded.
