Is the seating from the factory or installed by coachbuilders to the operator's specifications later?

the seating is the same for both of the two major bus companies in my city so i'm inclined to assume it's factory seating

the volvo hybrids are really weird, they first accelerate with the electric motor and then the diesel engine kicks in and is pretty loud. local bus company bought MAN hybrids, can't tell anything bad about them after 15 years of riding mostly Mercedes Citaro buses.

Making bus seats uncomfortable discourages transients from camping out on it

in germany hobos are discouraged by buses in general since the driver kicks out every passenger after reaching the final stop. if that was your point

It's literally the same shit for his american counterpart, that NovaBus LFS scrap junk. they are so uncomfortable, no suspension, vibrate so hard and it only got worst with the gen 3 and 4th, the only good NovaBus LFS models were the very first one from 1996 to 1999, before Volvo bought them
dont tell me you liked that bus, you know you dislike it

why do volvos makes the worst and shittiest bus in the industrie

Or do you think the city specifies the seating that gets fitted to their busses as part of their contracts with the bus operators?

Well the seating is largely the same in the two different cities (Hamburg, Kiel) so I don't think that is the case here.
Also the two major companies in Hamburg have the same seating for the Volvo, but different seatings for the MAN and Citaro so while the city sets ground rules, it's not that strict.

It's not a coincidence, Volvo already bought Nova Bus years ago.

This except pic related. It's amazing how much taking a single decker all the way to Guildford sucks compared to a double decker. The only comfortable part is in the back and even then you have to deal with the engine humming beneath you. I get so travel sick on these things.

I do both. And the train is my ideal choice but it's also expensive. So I balance it out.
