🚍 A very special first for Caboolture Bus Lines!

Congratulations to the Craike family and the entire Caboolture Bus Lines team on the delivery of their first brand new Irizar charter bus! 🎉

There’s always something exciting about welcoming a new bus into the fleet, but being the first brand-new Irizar makes this delivery one we’re especially proud to celebrate.

A huge thank you to the Craike family for choosing Irizar and placing your trust in our team. We’re thrilled to see this coach officially joining the Caboolture Bus Lines fleet and can’t wait to see it out on the roads of Queensland.

💛 You matter. Every conversation matters.

Today, on World Su***de Prevention Day, we’re reminded of the importance of looking out for the people around us! our colleagues, friends, families and communities.

Sometimes the most important thing we can do is simply check in. Ask the question, take the time to listen and remind someone that they don’t have to face a difficult time alone.

At Irizar Asia Pacific, we believe looking after people extends beyond the workplace. It’s about creating a culture where people feel supported, valued and comfortable having the conversations that matter.

A simple “Are you OK?” could mean more than you realise.

If you or someone you know needs support, Lifeline is available 24/7 on 13 11 14.

***dePreventionDay

This World Su***de Prevention Day, we're thinking of all those affected by su***de.

This year’s theme, 'Changing the Narrative on Su***de', reminds us that the way we talk about su***de matters. When we replace silence with connection, stigma with understanding, and fear with compassion, we create space for people to feel heard and supported.

Today and any day, you can be there for those struggling, those living with loss, and those supporting others. A simple check‑in can be the start of a life‑changing conversation.

If you're going through a difficult time and need support, we encourage you to contact Lifeline on 13 11 14.

It’s fantastic to see the BusSAFE program continuing to reach young people, with the Dysons team getting out into local schools and delivering important bus and public transport safety education.

Together, Dysons and BusSAFE have now reached more than 1,000 students through the program, an incredible milestone and a great example of the positive impact our industry can have within local communities.

As a proud partner of BusSAFE, Irizar Asia Pacific is pleased to support an initiative that helps young passengers build the knowledge and awareness they need to stay safe around buses and on our roads.
A huge well done to Dysons for continuing to bring this important program into their local communities, and to the BusSAFE team and fellow partners for keeping bus safety education front of mind. 👏

A fresh new look has arrived at Olympic Dam!

This week marks the arrival of the first Irizar sporting Kinetic’s new livery at Olympic Dam, and we have to say it looks fantastic! 👏

This latest arrival marks the 12th Irizar delivered to Olympic Dam in just the past couple of months, with another six buses set to follow in the coming weeks.

A project of this scale takes a huge team effort, and we’re incredibly proud of everyone involved in getting these coaches delivered ahead of schedule and ready to get to work.

A special thank you to Stephen Nesbit for all his assistance with relocating and registering the buses throughout the project and for capturing some fantastic photos along the way! 📸

Congratulations and thank you to Kinetic for their continued support and partnership with Irizar. We’d also like to recognise the entire Irizar Asia Pacific team and our contractors whose hard work behind the scenes has helped make these deliveries possible.

And a special mention to our Sales Manager, Luke Eldred, for securing another fantastic project with Kinetic.

12 delivered. 6 more to come. And plenty to look forward to. 🚍🙌

🏈The US San Francisco 49ers are in Melbourne and travelling in style! 🚌

It’s pretty cool to see the 49ers making their way around Melbourne with Alston Coaches, travelling aboard Irizars.

From San Francisco to Melbourne, this is one team arrival we’re pretty excited to see! 👀

A huge week for Melbourne as NFL action takes over the city and the MCG.

Great to see an Irizar along for the ride. 🙌🚌

A moment worth remembering! 💚

The launch of the Irizar i6S Efficient in Australia at the 2026 Bus & Coach Expo was certainly one of those special moments for our team.

Months of preparation leading up to those curtains coming down and introducing the i6S Efficient to the Australian market for the very first time.

Thank you to Australasian Bus & Coach for capturing the moment, and to everyone who was there to share it with us.

A great milestone for Irizar Asia Pacific, and only the beginning for the i6S Efficient in Australia. 🇦🇺

It was the first morning of a packed 2026 Bus & Coach Expo and everyone was at the Irizar Asia Pacific stand to unveil its new coach model

🚍 Closing out August with a very special first

We’re proud to celebrate the delivery of the first of its kind Irizar i6 on a Scania K360 Hybrid chassis to CDC Australia for Trainlink.

Designed for long-distance operations, this high-floor hybrid coach brings together a 360 hp diesel engine with electric assistance, supporting cleaner and more efficient operation across both town and freeway environments.

Built with passenger comfort, accessibility and safety at its core, the coach features 41 passenger seats with extra leg room and USB charging, two permanent wheelchair positions, an onboard toilet, Starlink Wi-Fi, DVD player and entertainment monitors, and 3x Hispacold eCo3 air purifiers, along with an extensive range of safety features.

And this is only the beginning, another six are on their way to CDC!

Bringing this project to life has taken a huge amount of collaboration, and we’re incredibly proud to see the first coach officially joining the CDC fleet.

A huge thank you to Michael Bourke and the CDC Australia team, Shane Simpson, Ian Clark and the entire Scania Australia team for working alongside Irizar to make this project a reality.

And a special mention to Luke Eldred for another great handover.

Congratulations to everyone involved in reaching this exciting milestone. We can’t wait to see the first of these seven coaches out on the road, with plenty more to come! 👏🚍

Backing an important cause in our local community.

On Friday the 21st, some of the men from the Irizar Asia Pacific team attended the Casey Cardinia Biggest Ever Blokes Lunch, supporting an important cause, raising awareness and funds for men’s health.

The event supports the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia (PCFA), while also contributing to men’s health initiatives within the local community.

Over the years, the Casey Cardinia Biggest Ever Blokes Lunch has raised an incredible $885,000, bringing the community together to start conversations, raise awareness and support better health outcomes for men.

We’re proud to support an event that encourages men to talk about their health, educate themselves and importantly, take action when something doesn’t feel right.

A great afternoon for an even greater cause. 💙
Your health matters. The conversation matters.

A special thank you to Brian Thompson from Scania Australia and our own Luke Eldred, who had the pleasure of delivering the coach to the Crisps family.

This latest addition makes it 2 Irizars and counting for Crisps Coaches, and we’re so excited to see both buses out on the road doing what they do best.
