To validate the real-world operational performance of the Yuchai YCK08310-60 engine in tourist coach applications, comprehensive on-road trials were conducted across Singapore's urban and suburban passenger routes. The test vehicle operates within Singapore's city and suburban districts, with one-way distances of 10–40 km (round trips under 100 km), fully reflecting the typical operating conditions of Singapore's intra-city tourist transport.
The test unit is a Yutong C11 tourist coach, exclusively powered by the Yuchai YCK08310-60 engine and paired with a Fast transmission. This powertrain setup is optimized to deliver consistent, reliable performance for a 49-passenger capacity at typical cruising speeds of 30–60 km/h, perfectly aligning with the demands of Singapore's mixed road environments.
