The Irisbus Citelis is a low-floor city bus produced by Irisbus from 2005 to 2013 when it was replaced in production by the Iveco Urbanway.^[1]

It was introduced in 2005 to replace the Agora. It comes in three varieties: Citelis 10 and Citelis 12, which are standard buses with respectively 10 m (33 ft) and 12 m (39 ft) length, and Citelis 18, which is articulated and has a length of 18 m (59 ft).
