Spectacular generosity and spontaneous openness characterise the next generation of the TopClass. Even when boarding, it gives your passengers a very special, exclusive feeling of comfort. Comfortable seats, the best view, perfect climate control and an interior with exquisite materials. This makes travelling a pleasure, which is now further enhanced with the new Coach Infotainment series.

Space is true luxury – in the Setra TopClass it is particularly generous and opulent. This already starts with the wide entrance. The passenger compartment offers ample room to move and, thanks to the optional TopSky Panorama glass roof, a magnificent view. Perfect climate control with the greatest possible protection against infection thanks to advanced ventilation systems and antiviral active filters. Carefully select decor catches the eye, the hand glides over high-quality surfaces, tastefully arranged and carefully crafted. Loving details such as the ambient lighting or the service sets with new, even more functional air vents characterise these super high-decker buses, which are outstanding in every respect. And when it gets dark outside, the new large monitors inside light up in HD quality.

Seat comfort is of paramount importance, especially on long journeys. Setra seating from our own production is available in numerous variants. All are characterised by their legendary workmanship and comfort. Especially when combined with the optional, multi-adjustable headrests. The seat covers are a feast for the eyes, because the choice of fabrics and combinations thereof is virtually inexhaustible. Offer your passengers something special, combine upholstery and covers to create a unique feel-good ambience on board.

Perfect ergonomics and a design with a wow effect. The most coveted seat in the Setra TopClass is right at the front. The driver's workplace reaches a completely new level with its extremely high-quality design and the excellent coordination of all components. The new equipment features and assistance systems support the driver in his important role, making his job more tranquil and relaxed.

The cockpit of the TopClass impresses with its uniform, intuitive operating and display concept. Its functionality is further enhanced thanks to new equipment features. Such as the keyless access system Keyless Start or the electronic parking brake. In addition, new assistance systems make everyday driving easier. The predictive cruise control PPC dazzles with its extended map coverage of Europe. Active Drive Assist 2 is a decisive step closer to the future of autonomous driving. And the 360° camera ensures better all-round visibility when manoeuvring.

Comfort begins even before you get on board: when entering the next generation of Setra TopClass, the key simply stays in your pocket with Keyless Start. The engine is started simply by pressing the start button, that's all it takes. The new electronic parking brake already impresses with an easy-grip control knob. And it can do a lot. It is activated automatically when the coach stops and the driver leaves his seat. It is released by pressing a button or pressing the accelerator pedal. Hold function and starting aid are integrated. All together, a real technical showpiece. This applies all the more to Active Drive Assist 2. It bundles previous assistance systems, can accelerate, brake, maintain distance, steer, keep in lane – the path to autonomous driving is paved, fascinating. One of these assistance systems can now do much more: the intelligent predictive cruise control system Predictive Powertrain Control (PPC), with its extended map coverage, now covers not only motorways and trunk roads but also almost all extra-urban roads in Europe. PPC leads over country roads, even takes into account intersections and roundabouts. Comfort and safety are combined in new, even brighter LED headlights, now with High Beam Assist. The 360° camera effectively supports manoeuvring. But the pleasure on board should not be neglected either. The new Coach Infotainment series offers the latest generation of media usage for professional use in coaches. With flexible operation at the touch of a button, touchscreen or voice command – always adapted to the respective situation, it couldn't be more convenient. It all adds up to underline why Setra enjoys such an excellent reputation among drivers.

The onboard toilet offers passengers a carefree travelling experience – thanks to high quality standards and convenient access. Integrated directly into the boarding area, the onboard toilet fulfils the desire for maximum seating capacity. With the optional equipment variants such as sustainable water flushing instead of chemical flushing as well as smoke detectors, the onboard toilet has further advantages.

The optional version for long-distance vehicle convinces not only with fresh water flushing without chemical additives but also with equipment for high comfort demands. These include the washbasin with metal tap, a reinforced toilet seat, an additional paper roll holder and another mirror on the inside door.

The asymmetrically shaped partition behind entrance 1 underlines the high-quality equipment of the interior. Stably anchored directly to the floor and parapet, the partition is based on a robust integral foam frame with an elegant glass insert. As a further option for individualisation, the partition can also be fitted with an insert made of plastic or wood.

It has storage facilities and a luggage net and comes with stylish Setra lettering.

Kneeling to boarding side ensures more comfortable boarding and alighting for passengers at the stop. When the driver presses the kneeling button or, if automatic is preselected, the door button, the vehicle is lowered to a preset height on the boarding side. Part of the air escapes from the air spring bellows and the vehicle tilts towards the passenger.

One-sided lowering (kneeling) can be initiated automatically by opening the passenger doors, either via the kneeling button on the instrument panel or after activation with the pre-selection button. When the kneeling button is operated, the positions of the doors are taken into account. If the kneeling pre-selector switch is activated, the vehicle is lowered automatically via the “open door” signal to the boarding side and the doors open simultaneously. The driver can carry out an emergency lift with one button.

Setra offers passengers the best entertainment on board. For this purpose, the latest generation of monitors are used, which provide entertainment on the road. Thanks to the latest monitor technology and proven reliability, even long coach journeys fly by.

The optimal seating ergonomics of the Grammar driver's seat Linea/Tourea significantly improves the bus driver's working conditions and thus contributes to his health. The innovative ergonomic basic shape with comfortable adjustment options ensures a healthy sitting position at all times.

The air-sprung comfort driver's swing seat from Grammer is equipped with height adjustment, inclination and depth adjustment of the seat cushion, continuously adjustable lumbar support and side contour adjustment, rapid lowering as well as integrated headrest and seat belt.

All the control elements are combined into control units and arranged ergonomically next to the seat.

Cruise control is an electronic system that enables the vehicle to maintain a pre-selected speed even under changing load conditions.

The system allows speeds to be set from 15 km/h up to the vehicle’s control speed. It is controlled via the steering column switch on the right side of the steering column.

Cruise control can also be activated or deactivated using the multifunction steering wheel.

The Coach MediaRouter is a mobile WiFi hotspot via which passengers can access the internet with their mobile devices. The management of several SIM cards and effective bandwidth control round off the profile of this automotive media hotspot.

The device enables about 40-50 passengers to connect their mobile devices to the internet. The router establishes the internet connection via a mobile phone connection (combo antenna with 2 LTE branches) that supports the LTE (Long Term Evolution) standard. The advantage compared with a direct internet connection is the avoidance of typical reception interference and conserving the data volume of the passenger. The reception area outside the vehicle is approx. 30m. Furthermore, the router can be connected via a USB port to a media server by Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) to provide media content such as music, videos and images (playable media are MP3, MP4, JPEG and PDF)

The burglary and theft alarm system (EDW) increases security for the vehicle by deterring potential thieves due to the vehicle's visual and acoustic security devices. The system secures the passenger doors, luggage compartment doors, engine compartment door, maintenance and electrical compartment door and monitors the interior. Unauthorised tampering or intrusion is signalled visually (flashing lights) and acoustically (signal horn).

The electrically heated mattress provides more comfort in the driver's rest area, even at low temperatures. It consists of PU moulded foam and is covered in grey fabric. The power of the heater can be controlled via a wired control element with a 3-step switch. The mattress is fire protection tested according to EVO 132.40.

The attendant’s seat must meet high standards of ergonomics and comfort. But also in terms of functionality, it is important to meet high demands for contemporary flexibility with intelligent technology. The Setra attendants’ seats achieve both perfectly.

Whether as a single or double seat – the Setra attendants’ seats ensure a pleasant journey and a comfortable workplace. Ergonomically and functionally well thought-out, the foldable seats equipped with a 3-point safety belt impress with a variety of details and options. Depending on the series, the backrest can be infinitely adjusted manually or electrically and the seat can be moved forwards by 35 or 70 millimetres using two locking points. In addition to the flexible, body-friendly seating position, the armrest on the wall side also offers extra comfort for attendants/tour guides. Thanks to the compactness of the seats, more space is guaranteed for entry as well as for an upstream freezer or storage cupboard.
