Bus Stop Classics: 1955 - 1973 Ikarus 55/66 - The Bus Behind the Iron Curtain By Jim Brophy - Posted on April 13, 2019 Back in 2016, we reviewed the motor coach manufacturer Ikarus, based in Budapest Hungary. Ikarus was a bus manufacturer based in Budapest and Székesfehérvár, Hungary. It was established in 1895 as Imre Uhry's Blacksmith Workshop and Coach Factory ( hun.: Uhry Imre Kovács- és Kocsigyártó Üzeme) and during the Communist era in Hungary it dominated bus markets of the entire Eastern Bloc and its allies. [1] History Early history (1895-1932)

Az Ikarus 66 az Ikarus gyár városi-elővárosi autóbusztípusa. Elterjedt beceneve „faros", melyet valószínűleg jármű farmotoros elrendezése, és az ehhez kapcsolódó jellegzetes, járműtestből hátulra kinyúló motorsátor ihletett. The Ikarus 55 is a high-floor coach designated for long-distance as well as interurban traffic, and the first rear-engine Ikarus bus. It was made from 1952 - 1973, alongside the technically related Ikarus 66, by the Hungarian bus maker Ikarus. In total, 8,350 Ikarus 55 and 66 were delivered to East-Germany. [1] Technical description The Ikarus 66 is an urban-suburban bus, produced in great numbers between 1952 and 1973. Most of the 9,260 units produced were exported to the German Democratic Republic from 1957, and it was one of the dominant types of bus transport in the 1960s and 1970s. Apart from the exports to the GDR, some 2,700 vehicles were delivered to Volán. It is said that in the 1970s and 1980s, two-thirds of the world's articulated bus production was related to the 280 Ikarus model. The vast majority of people living in Central Europe can almost certainly recognize this vehicle. Although the company's production was modernized after the fall of Communism, the last buses produced by Ikarus in.

The mass production of Ikarus buses began in the late '40s and they soon became the talk of the town. As Múlt-kor writes, the renowned Hungarian weekly paper, Élet és Tudomány (Life and Science) also reported about the latest wonder of the Hungarian technology industry, referring to the Ikarus 30 model as a mobile glass palace. Ikarus was a bus manufacturer based in Budapest and Székesfehérvár, Hungary, established in 1895. Ikarus later became a prominent factory in Hungary and was able to dominate most of the Eastern Bloc countries' markets. In 2003, due to numerous financial struggles and a change in ownership, the company was shut down.
Most remained in operation through the late 1980s—1986 was the last year of production—but a few stayed in service until the early 1990s. A number of cities like Portland bought Ikarus buses. Ikarus became famous in Czechoslovakia mainly with the articulated model 280, but in its history it has a number of interesting buses. In the eyes of many, they are dominated by the pair 55 and 66, which in the early 1950s stood out from almost everything that the then socialist states produced. Technology and external […]
