BusTech delivers first hybrid commuter buses

BusTech Group and its partner Scania Australia have delivered their first two hybrid buses for the Adelaide metropolitan commuter network.

The new hybrid buses (pictured), with the bright green tops, have been designed to reduce emission by 25 per cent and have a 15 per cent reduction in fuel consumption.

The hybrid buses hit the streets of Adelaide on Friday as part of a contract to supply approximately 340 new buses over 10 years.

BusTech Group was recently formed from Precision Buses and BusTec and operates factories in manufacturers in Queensland and South Australia.
