About the Real Mercedes-Benz Citaro O530G Facelift

The Mercedes-Benz Citaro O530G Facelift is the mid-cycle refresh of the first-generation 18-meter articulated Citaro, introduced in 2005 alongside the Facelift of the rigid O530. Built at Mercedes-Benz's Mannheim plant, the Facelift updated the front-end styling, interior trim and emission package while keeping the underlying Gen 1 chassis architecture in production through 2011, when the second-generation Citaro C2 took over. European operators specified the Facelift O530G in multiple door configurations — typically three-door and four-door layouts — and in both diesel and CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) powertrains, the latter favored by city authorities pursuing cleaner urban fleets through the late 2000s and early 2010s.
