Anadolu Isuzu, Türkiye’s commercial vehicle brand, is participating in the Busworld Europe 2025 exhibition in Brussels from October 4 to 9 with a host of innovative models designed for various needs. Anadolu Isuzu’s newly developed models shaping the future of the industry — Grand Toro XL, Citiport 12 Class 2, and the electric vehicles Novociti Volt, Citivolt, and Novo Volt — are attracting great interest at the fair.
Producing vehicles with the latest technology and high-quality standards, Anadolu Isuzu continues to strengthen its wide sales network and customer base in international markets. The company is showcasing a broad range of model options at Busworld Europe 2025, reflecting its innovative design approach and catering to diverse requirements. As one of the largest international fairs in the bus industry, Busworld Europe 2025 is currently taking place in Brussels from October 4 to 9. Anadolu Isuzu is exhibiting its newly developed Grand Toro XL and Citiport 12 Class 2 models alongside its cutting-edge, fully electric vehicles Novociti Volt, Novo Volt, and Citivolt 12.
At a press conference held during the fair, Anadolu Isuzu General Manager Tuğrul Arıkan emphasised that the company views its international operations as a strategic growth area and one of the fundamental pillars for creating sustainable value.
Arıkan said, “For 42 years, Anadolu Isuzu has been on a continuous growth journey. By expanding our product range, we are strengthening our presence in international markets. We place great importance on strategic collaborations at the global level. With our R&D and manufacturing expertise, we currently export to more than 45 countries.”
“We are working with a vision to further expand our international operations”
In his speech, Tuğrul Arıkan underlined that Anadolu Isuzu is much more than a brand that exports products. “We are working to expand our global footprint even further. We establish long-term, value-added relationships at an international scale. The strong partnerships we build with our global stakeholders not only enhance the quality of our products and services but also expand our market access, strengthen our technological capabilities, and increase our operational efficiency. This synergy significantly contributes to our ability to adapt quickly to different markets, offer more competitive solutions, and achieve sustainable growth in our business results.
In this context, our latest step is the accepted offer to acquire the majority shares of SamAuto, operating in Uzbekistan. The acquisition process is progressing rapidly, and we are preparing to launch our second production facility in the coming months.
We will continue to respond to today’s and tomorrow’s needs by developing sustainable technologies, investing in environmentally friendly production, digitalisation, robust after-sales support systems, and new partnerships,” he added.
Newly Developed Version of Grand Toro XL
Anadolu Isuzu is showcasing the redeveloped version of its well-known Grand Toro model, now offering a seating capacity of 41 and expanded luggage capacity. The new high-capacity version, Grand Toro XL, is being introduced for the first time at Busworld Europe 2025. With larger dimensions and advanced features, this model is positioned as ideal for short- and medium-distance shuttle services, tourism, and airport transportation. Grand Toro XL stands out with its low-emission, environmentally friendly engine and advanced safety features.
Another highlight at the Anadolu Isuzu stand is the Citiport 12 Class 2. With its high passenger capacity and spacious interior, the Citiport 12 Class 2 is preferred for intercity and suburban transportation, as well as urban public transport in some European cities. The model features an accessible design for disabled passengers. Citiport 12 Class 2 has been recognised as Europe’s most comfortable and ergonomic bus, providing easy and comfortable access for all passengers with disabilities.
Electric Bus Models Leading the Future on Display
Focusing strongly on electric vehicle technologies to develop environmentally friendly transportation solutions, Anadolu Isuzu is also exhibiting its 100% electric bus Novociti Volt, now upgraded with new features. The company is presenting the Novociti Volt Generation 2 model for the first time at the fair. Developed for navigating narrow city streets and medium-density routes, the model now offers greater comfort, better energy efficiency, and superior charging infrastructure. Development efforts on the model are ongoing.
Another fully electric vehicle on display is the Citivolt 12, a 12-meter city bus designed for zero-emission urban transportation. With its low-floor body and barrier-free access, the model is ideal for dense city routes, municipal transportation, and cities pursuing eco-friendly mobility solutions. Its quiet operation, low operating costs, and high energy efficiency are attracting strong attention from both operators and municipalities.
The latest model in Anadolu Isuzu’s electric portfolio, NovoVolt, is also being showcased as a mid-sized bus. Fully electric, this vehicle offers an excellent alternative for municipalities, private public transport operators, airport transfers, and on-campus mobility solutions.
