Hybrid
Buses are popping up all over the place, and if you follow the industry
you can seldom go a week without hearing about another city that's
purchased an entire fleet. One of the leaders in the hybrid
bus market is GM, and a quick review on their website indicates that
more than 700 GM hybrid-powered buses have been delivered to more than
50 U.S. cities.
King County (Seattle, WA) has operated a fleet of more than 200 GM
hybrid buses for nearly three years, and according to the Associated
Press, they ordered another 500 of these hybrids from New Flyer in 2007
(GM supplies New Flyer's hybrid system). Below is a link to
an article & video we found on MSN
showing how these hybrids are benefiting the environment, and the
potential impact they will have when they become more prevalent.
Used hybrid buses to set to hit the market, as
these hybrid buses are rated for 12 years of usage.

GM states, "If America's nine largest cities replaced their transit
fleets—totaling 13,000 buses—with GM's hybrid
buses, the cities would save 40 million gallons of fuel each
year—a greater savings than 500,000 small hybrid vehicles.
".
With thousands of these green machines hauling millions of
people around the largest cities in the country, the next big
opportunity will be smaller metropolitan
areas looking to get their hands on used hybrid buses. And
which company will be in the best position to provide these communities
with a used hybrid bus fleet? Quite possibly the company that
gets found online. Magic Bus! (MSN
