Iveco Streetway

The Streetway is Iveco Bus’s low-floor city bus with a Cursor 9 engine that runs on diesel or compressed natural gas, offered in lengths of 12 m, 18 m and 18.75 m, and, as the Streetway ELEC, with a battery-electric drive in a 12 m length. Iveco’s product page heads the model “Clean city transport, in a cost-effective way” and says the Streetway “extends the IVECO BUS offering for city transport with an efficient bus optimized for urban mobility”. The figures on this page come from Iveco Bus’s three international technical sheets for the Streetway — diesel and CNG, each in 12, 18 and 18.75 m, and full electric in 12 m — which are marked September 2023 and whose PDF files were created on 6 October 2023; from the English Streetway brochure, footed PUBLICATION STREETWAY_EN 12/24 and created on 10 December 2024; and from the undated Streetway product page on Iveco Bus’s worldwide site, which links the brochure and the three sheets. All were read on 8 November 2026.

Lengths and versions

The brochure says the Streetway “offers a choice of 3 lengths – 12 m, 18 m and 18.75 m”; the product page gives “a choice of two lengths, 12 metres and 18.75 metres”. The diesel and CNG sheets, both headed “12 m / 18.75 m”, have a column for each of the three lengths. Their equipment lists give 2 or 3 door versions at 12 m and 3 or 4 door versions at 18 m, and the brochure’s line-up gives the same door counts for the 12 m bus and for the 18.00 m and 18.75 m buses.

The brochure calls the Streetway ELEC a “new model” with which Iveco Bus “extends its offer for zero-emission mobility”, for “targeted markets in Central, Eastern and Southern Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia”, and marks it “Available in 12 m only”. The product page groups the drivelines under “Natural Gas & Biomethane”, “Diesel & Biofuels” and “Electric”. Iveco Bus’s other city buses are described on the Iveco Urbanway and Iveco E-Way pages, and the drivelines used in city buses in city bus propulsion.

Dimensions and weights

The diesel and CNG sheets print the same dimensions and weights except for the height, 3,245 mm on the diesel sheet and 3,390 mm on the CNG sheet, and for the overhangs: the diesel sheet gives 2,700 / 3,400 mm at 12 m and 2,700 / 3,410 mm at 18 m and 18.75 m, and the CNG sheet prints 2,700 / 3,400 mm once for all three lengths. The brochure’s line-up gives 3,245 mm (Diesel) and 3,390 mm (CNG) for the Streetway and 3,220 mm for the Streetway ELEC. A footnote on every sheet reads “Max allowed vehicle axles load and GVW is depending on local regulation in registration country”. No document opened gives a kerb weight.

Seats and doors

Every sheet adds “Seat Layout can be changed in case of request”. The articulated drawings carry no length, and the electric sheet prints no door count beside its two drawings, one with three doors and one with two. No sheet gives a number of standing passengers; the brochure says the Streetway ELEC “can accommodate more than 90 passengers” and offers “a new 5 seats area on the rear part”, and the product page mentions “the option of having five seats at the rear”.

The doors open inwards, with a manual ramp at the second door; electric sliding external doors, with the front door opening inwards, and an electric wheelchair ramp are options. The diesel and CNG sheets list one wheelchair place combined with a place for a pram at 12 m and one wheelchair place plus one pram place at 18 m, with layouts for 2 wheelchairs (12 m) or 2 wheelchairs and 1 pram (18 m) as options. The product page says “The lowered platform between the front and middle doors facilitates access for all passengers”; access requirements are described in bus accessibility.

Cursor 9 engine

The diesel and CNG Streetway use the Cursor 9, which the product page and the brochure credit to FPT Industrial: 8.7 litres, six cylinders in line, mounted longitudinally at the rear, with common rail named on the diesel sheet. Both sheets carry “EURO VI STEP E” in their titles. The engine family is described in FPT Cursor 9.

Both sheets label the power row “POWER @ 2500 RPM”, while each figure in the row carries its own engine speed. The brochure’s line-up gives “310 hp / 1300 Nm” for the 12 m bus and 360 hp with “Diesel: 1650 Nm CNG: 1640 Nm” for the 18 m and 18.75 m buses.

The product page says the Cursor 9 is “combined with the HI-SCR after-treatment system without active regeneration”, and that the Streetway “is also compatible with XTL fuels - also known as synthetic fuels or e-fuels - and biogas”. The brochure describes the diesel version as “compatible with second-generation biofuels” and the CNG version as “compatible with bio-methane featuring high-capacity tanks for long range”. The sheets list an exhaust pipe with its outlet on the roof toward the back, an aftertreatment system, fire detection in the engine compartment with an alert on the dashboard and a water-mist fire extinguisher system for the engine; an exhaust outlet at ground level is an option.

Fuel and gas tanks

The diesel sheet gives a 280 litre diesel tank at 12 m, filled on the right-hand side near the front door above the front axle wheel, and a 380 litre tank at 18 m, filled on the right-hand side near the middle door above the middle axle wheel, with a 50 litre AdBlue tank filled at the rear on the right-hand side at both lengths. The CNG sheet lists the gas storage in bottles of type CNG3:

Filling is through NGV2 connectors on the left and at the rear on the right-hand side, with NGV1 and NGV2 filling at the rear on the right side as an option. The brochure’s line-up gives the same volumes as “serial” and “opt.” figures.

Streetway ELEC: motor, batteries and charging

The electric sheet lists an “Electric Central Motor Voith EHD E-Motor” with a nominal power of 310 kW and a peak power of 410 kW, a maximum torque of 3,100 Nm and a maximum motor speed of 3,800 rpm, in a “central e-motor drive line”; the brochure’s line-up names it “VOITH HD E-Motor” and gives the gearbox as “N/A”. The rear axle is a ZF AV 133 with a rear axle ratio of 7.36, and the maximum vehicle speed is limited to 85 km/h. The retarder entry reads “Incorporated into electric tracking drive line – recuperation braking”, with a recuperation hand lever under the steering wheel. Battery-electric city buses are described in electric buses explained.

The batteries are FPT NMC cells in packs placed on the roof and at the back of the vehicle. The sheet and the brochure give the same pack counts and differ on the standard energy:

The brochure calls these figures the “overall embedded on board energy” and says the NMC Li-ion battery technology is “assembled by FPT”. Charging is overnight at the depot through a CCS Combo 2 plug of up to 150 kW, with the socket at the front on the right-hand side as standard and in another position as an option. The brochure says the battery capacity “enables a range of up to 400 km”, and gives the duration of night-time recharging at the depot as “up to 5 hours depending on the charging system capacity, max 150 kW”. No document opened gives a usable battery capacity.

Gearbox, axles, suspension and brakes

The diesel and CNG sheets list as standard an automatic Voith Diwa 6 gearbox with SENSOTOP or a ZF Ecolife 2 with TOPODYN, with a 3 or 6 touch gearbox selector. The rear axle is a lowered ZF AV 133, with a lowered ZF AVN 132 middle axle on the 18 m bus, and the maximum vehicle speed is limited to 90 km/h. Beside the rear axle, the optional column of the diesel sheet prints “12 m – 6,20 (S) / 5,76 (O)” and “18,00-18,75 m – 5,76 (S) / 6,20 (O)”, and that of the CNG sheet “12 m – 5,76 (S) / 6,2 (O)” and “18,75 – 6,20 (S) / 5,76 (O)”, without a label.

The front axle is an RL 82 EC with independent suspension, written IFS RL 82 EC on the diesel and CNG sheets and ZF RL 82 EC on the electric sheet. Steering is a Hema worm-type unit with integrated power steering on the diesel and CNG buses and an electrically powered system on the electric bus. All three sheets list electronic full air suspension with a self-levelling function and a kneeling function.

Compressed air comes from a dual-cylinder compressor of 630 cm³, with air drying, oil separation and low-carbon steel air tanks, on the diesel and CNG buses, and from an electrically powered compressor with an air dryer, optional oil separation and aluminium air tanks on the electric bus. The service brake is pneumatically controlled on the diesel and CNG buses and electro-pneumatically on the electric bus, with disc brakes front and rear, EBS (with ABS and ASR on the diesel and CNG sheets), two independent circuits front and rear and a parking brake; the electric sheet’s brake list adds an item for bus stops with opened doors and a hill holder (automatic hand brake) with a switch-off button. ESP is an option on all three sheets, marked “12m only” on the diesel and CNG sheets. The diesel and CNG buses have a hydraulic retarder in the gearbox, linked to the service brake pedal, with a manual lever to control it as an option. Tyres are 275/70 R22.5 on 22.5x7.5 steel rims; the electric sheet adds “front 152/148, rear 150/145” beside the size.

Body, interior and driver’s area

The sheets give the Streetway as “Vehicle Type M3 Class 1 (EU type approval)” and ECE R107 compliant, written “ECE R 107.07” on the diesel and CNG sheets, and the product page says “Compliance with UNECE R66 and R29 is integral to the STREETWAY”; the rollover requirement is described in bus rollover strength. The structure is steel with an anti-corrosion cataphoresis treatment, self-supporting and made of 6 panels welded together, with a roof of sandwich composite panel (fibreglass, polystyrene and fibreglass), aluminium side panel segments glued to the body and polyester bumpers front and rear.

The passenger area has Kiel IDEO seats with plastic trim, on the electric bus with cantilever fixing apart from the seats on the wheel arches and the rear bench, and fabric trim with foam as an option; painted handrails, with stainless steel as an option; a 6 kg fire extinguisher; and 8 stop buttons with a sign box at the front on the 12 m bus, 13 stop buttons on the 18 m bus. Electrical equipment on all three sheets includes a multiplex system, 2 batteries of 225 Ah on a sliding tray and LED lighting inside and outside; the diesel and CNG sheets add a NATO plug for battery charging and alternators of 2 x 150 A at 12 m and 3 x 150 A at 18.75 m. The electric sheet lists a Digital Smart tachograph as an option.

Standard glazing is tinted on the diesel and CNG buses and grey on the electric bus, with tilting upper ventilation windows (sliding as an option) and a manual sliding driver’s window. The diesel sheet lists glazed roof hatches and the CNG sheet “1 roof hatch glazed (no emergency exit)”, manually operated, with electric operation as an option. Options on the diesel and CNG buses include floor heating by 2 heaters (12 m) or 3 heaters (18 m), an independent heater of 30 kW at 12 m and 35 kW at 18 m on the diesel sheet, 30 kW at both lengths on the CNG sheet, a roof-mounted air-conditioning unit of 39 kW (12 m) or 48 kW, 2x24 kW (18 m), with a reheating function, and double glazing. The electric bus has a 20 kW electric heater and heats the passenger room by heaters and a convector; its options are reinforced heaters, a hybrid heater (electrical and HVO), an electric roof air-conditioning unit with 30 kW cooling and 19 kW heating capacity with a heat pump, air conditioning for the driver, and pre-conditioning and heating at the depot.

The driver has a closed cabin, with a door with half glazing on the diesel and CNG buses and with high glazing, opening backwards, on the electric bus, a dashboard adjustable on the steering column, upper storage, a seat with air suspension and a safety belt, and external mirrors with electric de-icing and manual control. Electrically controlled mirrors, other cabin doors and Grammer or ISRI seats are options, and the electric sheet adds rear view camera mirrors and door cameras. The brochure says the driver’s workplace “was completely renewed” and “is compliant with VDV 234”, that the steering column position “is now pneumatically lockable”, and that turning seats of 35° (VDV) with ISRI are optional. The product page calls the driver’s position “comfortable and slightly elevated”.

Safety and driver assistance

All three sheets list “GSR B compliant M3 class I.” with MOIS, BSIS, ISA, DDAW, REV, ESS, ALC and TPMS. The brochure names four of these systems as hosted in the new front face — blind spot information system (BSIS), moving off information system (MOIS), intelligent speed assistant (ISA) and driver drowsiness attention warning (DDAW) — with a radar in the front face and a camera behind the windscreen that together detect vulnerable road users approaching from the front and the sides, and road signals, and a light sensor in the camera that switches the headlights on automatically. The GSR systems are listed in mandatory driver assistance systems. The product page says Iveco Bus “is actively developing technologies” for recognising blind spots, warning systems against collisions with pedestrians or cyclists, tyre pressure monitoring, alcohol testing devices and on-board cybersecurity.

Connectivity

The brochure says the Smart Pack is included as series equipment in all IVECO BUS heavy range vehicles, with the IVECO ON customer portal and the IVECO Easy Bus app, which offers driving style evaluation and over-the-air software updates. It describes a Premium Pack for fleet management, fleet management products from ChargePoint, and the TiGR Web API, “specified by the European ITxPT association”, as “a standardized multi-brand fleet management data stream”.

Model line

No document opened gives a launch date, a production plant or an earlier generation of the Streetway. The product page calls it “This new low-floor city bus”, and the brochure presents a “New front face”, a renewed driver’s workplace and the “new model Streetway ELEC”.
