Autoservizi Troiani is now operating a regular service in the outskirts of the Italian capital, Rome, with 40 new Citaro hybrid buses

Leinfelden-Echterdingen/Rome - Since 21 January 2024, 40 Mercedes-Benz Citaro hybrid city buses have been making an important contribution to increasing environmental sustainability, passenger comfort and service quality in suburban traffic in the Italian city of Rome. Bus company Autoservizi Troiani recently acquired the new hybrid vehicles from the Italian Daimler Buses sales company, Daimler Buses Italia. These hybrid buses were commissioned just 20 days after a contract was signed with the city of Rome (Roma Capitale)following a public tendering process. The contract was promptly implemented, resulting in 15 percent of the local public transport in Rome being transferred to the joint venture of ATI Autoservizi Troiani S.r.l. and SAP S.r.l. for the next eight years.
