The Toyota Coaster isn’t the only minibus in town.
Hyundai has long produced the County, which has been revised for 2023 with a host of upgrades.
Hariphil Asia Resources Inc. (HARI), the official importer and distributor of Hyundai commercial vehicles in the Philippines, announced in a February 2023 press statement that the County New Breeze is now available in two body lengths:
-
Long Body – 7,110 mm length, 29+1 seating
-
Extra-Long Body – 7,710 mm length, 29+1 (reclining seats) or 32+1 (standard seats)
The County New Breeze is also taller than the previous model, now standing at 2,870 mm, to accommodate the roof-mounted electric ventilator and condenser units for the air-conditioning system.
HARI said the relocated air-con means it is less exposed to dirt and provides better airflow.
The minibus also features a digital climate-control system that allows for precise control of the cabin’s temperature, along with jump seats to maximize passenger capacity.
Uncluttered dash
The County New Breeze also features an ergonomic cockpit for the one person behind the wheel of this behemoth.
Besides the large and clear gauges, there’s also a 3.5-inch LCD screen that displays critical vehicle information.
In addition, the new M850B audio unit includes a radio, CD player, TV connection, driver speaker, AUX input, USB and an external microphone input for a public-address system.
