Ataman A092, known as Bogdan A092 in 2003–2011 and as Cherkasy Autobus A092 in 2011–2012, is a high-floor midibus manufactured at Cherkasy Autobus factory in Ukraine.




History


Bogdan's Cherkasy Autobus had been producing their successful Bogdan A091 midibus since 1999, but with time it was becoming more and more irrelevant to the ecological and safety standards and the company decided to develop an updated model reflecting on the feedback of bus drivers and passengers. The new Bogdan A092 was presented February 11, 2003, aside from the new mask design it received a new headlights and taillights, larger driver's windows, new doors and seats, traction control system and a Euro-3 engine, the bus also became 215 mm longer.
Bogdan Motors began to export their A092 to Russia, Armenia and Georgia. In 2005–2013 they were also assembled at Gomel Automobile Repair Factory in Belarus under the name Radzimich A092.
When Bogdan Corporation was formed in 2005 it was decided to move all the bus production to Lutsk Automobile Factory so Cherkasy plant would only assemble licensed foreign cars but the 2007 crisis caused a big credit load on the corporation. In 2011 Bogdan decides to sell the Cherkasy Bus Factory to Prominvestbank. The factory had extended their partnership with Isuzu and formed the Isuzu Ataman, renaming all the models to Ataman.
In 2012 with renaming Ataman A092 had received a restyling with various minor improvements. Some of the variations also received glued windows similar to the ones installed on the early A091 buses. The bus was remaining in production until 2015, next year Cherkasy Bus Factory presented its replacement, Ataman A092H6.
