A fourth row of seats has been added to the H-1 Elite bus, increasing capacity from eight to 12 occupants. The result is a 3-3-3-3 configuration with a narrow seat in the middle of the three front rows, the aforementioned are able to fold up to allow for access to the rows at the back.
The added rear bench can move forward for increased luggage capacity. The Elite bus still comes with an infotainment centre with a large touch-screen, Bluetooth connectivity, cruise control, rear camera with a display in the rear-view mirror and Electronic Stability Programme (ESP).
