Ikarbus IK-202

Ikarbus IK-202 is an articulated city bus built by the Serbian bus manufacturer Ikarbus from 1996 until 2005.

The model IK-202 was developed from Ikarbus IK-201. In 1996 the production of older IK-161 model has been ceased. IK-202 is similar to IK-201, and IK-203 models. The main difference between those three models is that IK-201 has MAN engine, IK-202 has RABA engine and IK-203 has Mercedes engine. The further development of those models which has replaced them in production is IK-206, with vertical MAN engine which has replaced IK-202 from production.

It has 39 passenger seats made of two pieces of plywood (seat and back) on foundation of steel bars and bars for holding. Doors are four two-wing, pneumatically controlled and opened to the inside. There are seven windows with slide rule and four roof airshafts. The heating system consists from heater on front wall, three heaters in passengers compartment. Roof and sides are isolated.

The IK-202 is today used by GSP Belgrade and other public bus operators in Serbia but in smaller numbers than IK-201. Several IK-202 have been exported to Russia.
