What Happened
Transport operator Nobina will introduce 27 new Scania biogas buses into service on behalf of public transport authority Skånetrafiken. The buses, designed for longer journeys with coach seats and a toilet, will operate on the Malmö-Lund and Malmö-Kristianstad routes. The order strengthens Scania's biogas bus fleet in the region and builds on positive experiences from existing collaboration.
“Sustainability is important to us, and the vehicles should also be easy to own. This is important for our drivers, our passengers, and for our mission to deliver reliable transport every day.”
“Biogas is a circular and locally produced solution that provides great climate benefits here and now. With the Scania Irizar i4, Nobina will receive a modern and comfortable bus that is quiet, energy-efficient and well-suited for regional travel. We are proud to continue to contribute to the sustainable development of public transport in the Skåne region.”
