Golden Dragon recently delivered a batch of 10 brand-new 9-meter GC high-end tour buses to Yunnan Honghe Shunjie Automobile Transportation Co., Ltd. The new vehicles will soon be deployed for cultural-tourism chartered services, scenic spot shuttles, and business receptions. Built on Golden Dragon's modular high-end coach platform, these customised vehicles combine premium interiors, robust performance, and comprehensive intelligent safety features. They are set to elevate the quality of tourist passenger transport services in Yunnan and serve as benchmark models for the region's high-end cultural-tourism mobility sector.

The GC series represents Golden Dragon's flagship offering for the mid-to-high-end tourist passenger transport market. Its 9-meter body strikes an optimal balance between manoeuvrability and passenger space, adapting effortlessly to diverse road conditions — from county-level mountain roads and narrow scenic lanes to urban commuter routes. It has become a preferred choice for small and medium-sized transport enterprises seeking quality improvement and operational efficiency gains. For this fleet, Honghe Shunjie opted for a premium business-travel configuration featuring the GC's exclusive "Blue Horizon & Azure Sky" interior theme. The fresh, elegant colour palette, combined with full-vehicle soft upholstery and an optimised NVH quiet cabin, creates a serene and upscale riding ambience.
Adopting a luxurious 2+1 business seating layout, the coaches are equipped with 25 large-size business seats with headrests. Ergonomically designed with adjustable backrests and full armrests, these seats help ease fatigue during long journeys. Each seat comes with an individual USB charging port to keep passengers' electronic devices powered throughout the trip. Onboard karaoke system and a vertical water dispenser are also installed, catering to entertainment and hydration needs. These meticulous details maximise travel comfort, perfectly meeting the diverse demands of family excursions, study tours, and business inspections.
On the powertrain and chassis front, these GC buses are powered by proven Yuchai engines, delivering robust performance and fuel efficiency — well-suited for long-distance hill climbing on mountainous terrain. Paired with a Qiesite transmission featuring pneumatic assistance, the system enables smooth, effortless gear shifting, significantly reducing driver fatigue on extended trips. The chassis is fitted with imported six-air-bag air suspension, which effectively absorbs road shocks, reduces body roll during cornering, and delivers superior high-speed stability compared to competing models, striking an ideal balance between riding comfort and vehicle durability.
Safety remains the core priority for passenger transport operations. These GC buses are fully equipped with a comprehensive suite of active-safety intelligent driver-assistance systems for multi-layered driving protection. Key configurations include forward collision warning, lane departure warning, a DMS driver monitoring system, and AEBS advanced emergency braking system — all working together to help prevent rear-end collisions and safeguard drivers and passengers throughout every journey.
Notably, both before and after delivery, Golden Dragon carried out thorough PDI inspections, established exclusive vehicle files, provided one-on-one operator training, and rolled out a dedicated green spare-parts channel for the GC series. This comprehensive after-sales support eliminates operational worries for customers.

It also serves as strong evidence of market recognition for the GC's product strength in regional passenger transport. Looking ahead, Golden Dragon will continue to deepen its presence in the tourist passenger transport segment. Leveraging its modular platforms, human-centred customisation, and robust safety technologies, the manufacturer will deliver high-value coaches for passenger transport companies nationwide and contribute to the high-quality development of China's passenger transport industry.
