Autoguidovie, Italy, has launched a tender process to renew and expand its fleet, publishing a series of framework agreements that provide for the overall supply of up to 195 buses, accompanied by full-service maintenance contracts. The operation has a total economic value of more than €113 million. The strategy is a technology mix that includes plug-in electric buses, CNG-powered vehicles and diesel buses, as well as a diversification in size and class that reflects different operational needs.

Deutsche Bahn has concluded its largest-ever bus procurement, securing long-term framework contracts for more than 3,000 new buses for DB Regio operations across Germany. The contracts cover the supply of around 3,300 solo and articulated buses and have a duration of six years, with deliveries planned between 2027 and 2032. In financial terms, DB values the agreements at more than €1 billion.
