New Buses

Fleet Renewal

By the end of the year, all 72 buses purchased by Auto Viação 1001 will be delivered, with 55 of them already in operation. The main beneficiary is Northern Rio de Janeiro State, which is assigned thirty air-conditioned buses with bathrooms, traveling to and from the towns of Campos dos Goytacazes and Macaé.

The Company also acquired seven more buses for the Rio de Janeiro - Florianópolis and São Paulo - Florianópolis lines, all with air conditioning, bathrooms and reclining seats. The others consist of fifteen vehicles for urban routes and twenty for lines traveling between Rio de Janeiro and towns all over Rio de Janeiro State.

The renewal of the 1001 Fleet reaches 10% this year.
