Safety is Key.

Propane Autogas is the not just the best economical choice you can make for your district, it's also the safest for your students. Here's why:

Lower emissions 

The clean burning nature of propane reduces harmful emissions and helps everyone (especially the kids standing at the bus stop) to breathe a little easier. When compared to diesel bus systems, use of propane Autogas led to a 95% reduction in harmful nitogen oxides. (source)

Quieter Operation 

Propane Autogas engines run quitter than diesels, leading to less noise pollution in  inside the bus and around your community. Drivers need to be able to hear students and propane helps that happen.

Safer Handling
