Frequently asked questions

Which chassis do Brazilian articulated bodies use?
The catalog centers on Volvo B340M and B12M chassis alongside Mercedes-Benz O500UA, with Caio Millennium and Marcopolo Torino LN Articulado bodies. These are the same chassis-body pairings deployed in Brazilian BRT trunk corridors.
What is the history of Brazilian articulated BRT?
Curitiba's Rede Integrada de Transporte (RIT), implemented in 1974, was one of the first BRT systems in the world. Brazil later introduced bi-articulated operations in 1992 (Curitiba, Volvo chassis + Marcopolo/Ciferal bodies, 270 passengers). This dual heritage — articulated and bi-articulated — makes Brazil the global capital of BRT coachbuilding.
