編號 Class：301 - 308 (2012 - 2014)

二零一零年，除了大嶼山巴士向中國製造商青年引進大型單層低地台巴士，位處馬灣的珀麗灣客運亦同時購入兩架青年大型單層低地台巴士。珀麗灣的青年外觀上跟嶼巴的沒有太大的分別，但型號名稱是JNP6122GR2。珀麗灣購入的JNP6122GR2跟嶼巴的JNP6122GR1最大分別在於雖然同樣由猛獅提供的引擎，但型號卻互有不同，而且擺放方式亦有異，這亦導致了兩款青年於車廂車尾的座位佈局有顯著差異。在車廂佈局，珀麗灣客運青年亦於車頭輪拱位置添置行李架，善用空間之外亦為乘客提供了最大方便。

首架珀麗灣客運青年(PM3822)於二零一零年十月抵港，並緊隨於嶼巴首架青年於十一月投入服務，行走往返珀麗灣及青衣鐵路站的NR330路線，第二架青年(PS3301)則於二零一一年二月領牌投入服務。為了接替購自九巴的丹尼士飛鏢低地台巴士，以及增強車隊運載能力，珀麗灣客運於二零一一年三月開始分階段引入多六架青年JNP6122GR2巴士，而有關登記車牌則來自其取代的飛鏢及豐田Coaster。在全數JNP6122GR2投入服務之後，青年巴士成為繼丹尼士/亞歷山大丹尼士Super Pointer Dart之後，另一主力車款。

另外，珀麗灣客運曾於二零一二年至一四年間，替旗下車隊編上編號，青年JNP6122GR2獲分配301-308車隊編號，隨著二零一四年車編號制度取消，有關編號未有再出現青年巴士身上。

Park Island Transport Co. Ltd. is the second Hong Kong bus operator to introduce full-sized super low floor bus from YoungMan of China in 2010. A pair of YoungMan JNP6122GR2 were acquired following a order of 9 YoungMan JNP6122GR1 made by NLB. Though the appearance of both Park Island and NLB YoungMan is identical, different model of MAN engine was chosen. To go one step further, the layout at the rear showed the significant difference between the YoungMan of Park Island and NLB as a result of the different placement of engine. Luggage-racks is also provided not only convenience to the commuter but also utilize every spaces in the cabin.

The first YoungMan (PM3822) for Park Island Transport Co. Ltd. was delivered in Oct., 2010 and started serving the resident on route NR330 since Nov., 2010 while the second YoungMan (PS3301) joined the fleet in Feb., 2011. Park Island Transport Co. Ltd placed a further order of 6 YoungMan in 2011 to enhance the carrying capacity of the fleet and as a replacement of the aging Dennis Dart SLF purchased from KMB. The first of this order was commissioned in Mar., 2011. One thing should be noticed all the registration no. are came from the Dart and Coaster being replaced. Instead of the Dennis/Alexander Dennis Super Pointer Dart, YoungMan JNP6122GR2 is another mainstream of the fleet.

Fleet number system was introduced between 2012 and 2014 and the YoungMan was allocated with fleet number 301 - 308. After the cancellation of the system, no more fleet number appeared on the YoungMan.
