Had BCM not been implemented, the registrations of the SG plated A22s would be:
SG1700U – SG1748H (49 buses): SMB3170H – SMB3218E
SG1749E – SG1898H (Euro 6; 150 buses; bought by BSEP in this scenario): SMB3219C – SMB3368E
Had BSEP not been implemented, and SMRT bought the remaining buses, then:
Batch 1 (200 Buses): SMB189A – SMB388S (NG363F demonstrator would be reassigned as SMB8000H or SMB838K)
Batch 2 (202 Buses): SMB1301K – SMB1502Y
Batch 3 (332 Buses): SMB1503U – SMB1834P
Batch 4 (Euro 6; 150 Buses; bought by SMRT in this scenario coupled with “Doors are Closing” chimes): SMB1835L – SMB1984P
Had the above scenario happened, but the plates continued in the existing series then:
Batch 1 (200 Buses): SMB189A – SMB388S (NG363F demonstrator would be reassigned as SMB8000H)
Batch 2 (202 Buses): SMB389P – SMB590Z
Batch 3 (332 Buses): SMB591X – SMB922A
Batch 4 (Euro 6; 150 Buses; bought by SMRT in this scenario coupled with “Doors are Closing” chimes): SMB923Y – SMB1072X
