How different will the B9TL Wright be?

Since the assembling and registration of the last batch of Scania K230UBs had been done , we are expecting the Volvo B9TL with Wright Gemini II body to be ready soon........ Would they be the same as the current B9TLs In terms of engine, gearbox etc? Conclude please.

The body would roughly look like this...... Picture taken from http://allaboutbuses.wordpress.com/ I DO NOT own this picture.... Picture below is for reference only. I know that this is a 2-axle DD.... But , what I'm trying to share , is , the bodywork design........ Not on axles.

engine will definitely be different. instead of a D9A300 unit on the CDGE B9TLs which is an Euro III engine, the engine option should be a D9B310 which is EEV compliant using SCR technology. dashboard should be same as 8030L.

All i hope that these new Wright buses, dont ROAR as loud as i have exp on svc 51, 143, 151, 174. i just cant figure out why this new bus have such loud take off acceleration engine noise. The ac unit ? or is it just the engine ? Anyone have any clue ?

Body wise, hope it wont follow how SBST has 1100 near similar body work of scania KUB. Hope they will vary the design a little, just like Scania K310 on 133/133M.

it is most likely to look closely as our own cdge's B9TLs

in fact, i tink they look very close to Wrights original bodywork, thanks to e 1 piece windscreen.

If I'm not wrong it should look very similar to the AVBWUs KMB currently has.

Bodyworks are the Wright Gemini MkII bodywork, very close to the bodywork of the KMB AVBWUs. Wright Gemini MkII Volvo B9TLs....
