      Speaking more on this occasion, Vernon Noronha, Vice President, defence and government business, Tata Motors, said, “With state-of-the-art capabilities in developing and integrating intelligent world-class electronic vehicular systems, we at Tata Motors work closely with all stakeholders in successfully deploying these technologies across a broad spectrum of commercial vehicles, enabling connectivity, safety, better fuel economy, along with optimal vehicle performance. These air conditioned buses with automatic transmission are most suitable for BRTS operations and have been developed for the first time for Janmarg.” He further added, “Automatic transmission in buses will reduce driver fatigue, improve acceleration, manoeuvrability and overall passenger comfort and experience, and more revenue earnings per bus. With this order we are proud to partner Ahmedabad Janmarg Ltd., in efficiently and safely running their bus services, with a high degree of reliability and availability.”

      The busses are built by Tata Marcopolo and feature a floor height of about 900mm with a length of about 12 meters. The busses get electronic display boards and pneumatic door operations. The passage-way is wider for easy movement and the window panes are larger for better visibility. The entry and exit door are also lower for easy movement of commuters like elderly passengers.
