Truck & Bus News: TRUBUS singled out at Sydney Bus Expo
Truck & Bus News covered Scania's showing at the Australasia Bus & Coach Expo at Sydney Olympic Park, and gave the TRUBUS a place among the headline attractions.
Writing for the publication, Jon Thomson reported on Scania's engine and electrification line-up before turning to the TRUBUS, describing it as the first off-road capable bus built on a 4x4 truck chassis to be shown publicly.
The article credits AutoBus Australia founders Frank Turrisi and Boris Cherny with the concept, and notes the vehicle's Scania P-series foundation, 320 hp five-cylinder engine, 40+ passenger capacity, and its target markets across mining, renewable energy and defence.

For a vehicle making its first public appearance, sharing a stand with Scania's Super engine platform and battery electric bus programme, that is meaningful coverage.
The article also introduced Niklas Walter as Scania's new director of sales for bus and power solutions.
