>Carol,
>we have 5 hybrid electric buses on orderto be delivered starting in
September 2001. This buses have both a small diesel engine and an electric
motor. The batteries are recharged when the diesel engine is on and when
brakes are applied. These vehicles consume less energy and procduce much
less pollution than the regular diesel buses currently used. Can you please
forward this information? Let me know if you need more details.
