The Neoplan N4016 was a low-floor single-decker bus built by Neoplan between 1988 and 1999, initially at Stuttgart in Germany and later also in Poland. It is the larger version of the Neoplan N4009 midibus.
In Belarus, Minsk Automobile Plant (MAZ) took contacts with Neoplan in order to produce the MAZ-101, a low-floor bus closely related to the Neoplan N4016. While the MAZ-101 sold poorly, subsequent variants (MAZ-103, MAZ-105 and the three-axle MAZ-107) have been sold to a vast amount of Belarusian, Russian and foreign operators and are still in production today.
