Zero-emission public transport just makes sense. The air quality in our city centres is getting worse, and as much as getting the bus helps with this, if it"s spewing out soot and other particulates from a great big diesel engine then it doesn"t really matter how many people are on board. So, electric buses are becoming ever more prominent, and now Hyundai has taken a break from hooning its N cars at the Ring to get in on the act. The double-decker you see above will seat 70 passengers (11 on the bottom floor and 59 up top) thanks to its hulking size it"s almost 13 metres long and just short of 4 metres tall. Although there"s rear-wheel steering to help drivers navigate city streets.
