I really don't see any difference in these type buses as compared to previous models. NOVA LF has a tendency to waste valuable interior space and lacks provisions for adequate seating.Imagine it was a 96 inch version you barely would be able to board the damn thing.

This model and more to come doesn't have a see-through window at back ,just like the 2015-2016 LFS Model, and has Wi-Fi and USB ports. And just like the XD60s for the MTA Bus Company, it will be wrapped in blue and gold colors.

Great catch on the new bus on video , I am disappointed on the new rear section missing the rear window, this plain ugly wall panel is boring no taste ! I like the MTA to bring back the rear window on the new future orders on the Nova and New Flyer Model i saw the NYU college shuttle bus New Flyer have the rear window so why not the MTA orders

What a mistake to not have the back window! It was one of my favorite features of the Nova design. What does the MTA have against natural light and visibility for passengers?

Almost every Canadian bus has rear windows (and many American ones too). I love them

I always liked the back window, but on the other hand I also have a soft spot in my heart for the RTS so I can't say it's a game breaker.

I am surprised they didn't wrap it in the new scheme prior to entering revenue service.

I definitely prefer the back window.
