Powered by Mercedes-Benz engines these integral buses are and were part of an order placed by Reading Buses in June 2018 to operate the Green Line branded route 702 from London to Slough, Windsor and Legoland. Reading Buses cancelled the order in July 2020 as part of a number of financial cutbacks made following the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Passenger capacity is for 75 seated passengers plus 8 standees. When a wheelchair passenger is carried the number of seated passengers is reduced by 3. All seats have seatbelts.

The vehicles feature a number of interior refinements not otherwise expected on normal service buses. The seats feature a drop down tray with cup holder, a coat/bag hanger (a retractable stud pushed to reveal and push again to retract), USB point and phone charger.

Note the position of the lower deck emergency door positioned midships and the roof windows.
