Škoda 24Tr Irisbus (known as Irisbus Skoda 24Tr in Western Europe) is a low-entry trolleybus model built since 2003 by Czech trolleybus manufacturer Škoda Electric (subsidiary of Škoda Transportation), supplying electrical equipment, in cooperation with Irisbus, supplying body.
After a relatively successful effort to unify bus and trolleybus (Karosa ŠM 11/Škoda T-11, Karosa B 831/Škoda 17Tr and Skoda 21ab/Škoda 21Tr) Czechs took fourth attempt, and created a trolleybus Škoda 24Tr. Trolleybus Skoda 24Tr is based on the Irisbus Agora bus and upgraded version Irisbus Citelis.
The Škoda 24Tr trolleybus a is two-axle trolleybus with self-supporting body. Trolleybus is a low floor, only the back of the seats on the stand. Thanks to air cushion properties (the ability to lower the air pressure trolley on the right) moves to the trolley stop is able to fall to the pavement level. Trolley on the right side there are three double doors with a "stop" button, which opens at the passenger's request.
Electrical equipment, based on IGBT transistor base, are placed in special containers on the roof. In parallel to the ordinary trolley model is produced, the trolleys, which are equipped with a diesel generator. This allows the trolley to ride without contact poles, it is sometimes used when the trolleybus is diverge from its route, but often also used in the same way when running on regular routes, such as Riga 9. and 27. trolley route.
The first trolleybus was built on the Citybus bus-based (based on the roof of CNG-based). Due to this type of bus abandonment and replacement by more modern buses Citelis, the trolley body was based on Citelis base (such trolleybuses began producing 2005), but the name remained unchanged at Citelis.
