Optare based the original design on the MCW Metrorider after Optare bought the rights following a decision by MCW to end bus production. This model also replaced the less successful StarRider.The MetroRider is an integral bus, which means the chassis and body are constructed as a single structure. It had many options, and was available in three lengths and two widths."@en .
