Test Run "Hybrid Bus"
Sounds like really amazing and cool to see hybrid bus in the streets and mind you it is like a library, not because you find books there but it is because it is a silent bus like a library. If you want to have some peace around the corner then it is might as well fits for you, but it is just a test run for now.

But the real difference is in how the bus runs. The city’s other hybrid buses run like hybrid cars. They run off battery power some of the time and diesel or (in the case of many cars) gas engines at other times. And the braking action helps charge the batteries.
The test bus is different in that it runs on battery power all the time. It has a diesel engine, but that is used only to charge the battery, although the bus also uses the brakes for that purpose. The diesel engine is different too. It is a turbine engine.
