MAN has received an order from two Norwegian bus operators, Tide Buss and TroderBilene, for a total of 131 city buses powered by CNG engines for operation in Trondheim, Norway's third-largest city. The order is for 99 12m-long Lion's City and 32 14.7m-long Lion's City L. All will be low-entry rather than full low-floor models.

MAN claims to be the market leader in CNG city buses, and has delivered over 5,000 to countries which include the Netherlands, Turkey, Germany, Sweden, Australia, Austria, Portugal, Iran and Spain.
