Abstract

Proposed is an omnibus (10) with steered front wheels (12) and steered, driven rear wheels (14), the rear wheels being situated in the region of the rear end (26) of the omnibus such that the wheel cases (28) associated with the rear wheels are situated essentially at the rear end of and/or beyond the interior space (18) for passengers. The drive mechanism for the rear wheels comprises an electric drive wherein the rear wheels are driven by no-slip wheel hub motors in the form of electric motors, and as a result the drive mechanism is especially compact and economical.
