Greyhound South Africa is proud to announce the continued expansion of its luxury coach fleet, with the arrival of additional Volvo Irizar i6S coaches at the end of June 2025. These latest additions bring the total number of new coaches introduced over recent months to 13, marking a significant investment in passenger comfort and service reliability.
The newly added coaches are part of Greyhound’s ongoing fleet renewal initiative, supporting the brand’s national growth, including the launch of two new routes: Cape Town to East London and Durban to East London. Both routes have demonstrated strong customer demand, underscoring the need to increase capacity with premium long-distance coaches.
Built through a world-class partnership between Irizar, a Spanish manufacturer known for its high-quality coach bodies, and Volvo, a global leader in chassis and powertrain engineering, the Irizar i6S on Volvo chassis represents the latest in safety, performance, and passenger experience.
“At Greyhound, our mission is not just to honour the reputation we’ve built since 1984,” says Etienne Badenhorst, General Manager at Greyhound. “It’s to surpass it. These new luxury coaches reflect that commitment, offering safe, comfortable, and dependable transport that travellers can count on.”
Greyhound’s latest investment underscores the brand’s commitment to setting new standards in intercity travel, ensuring passengers enjoy the very best in long-distance luxury and convenience.
