even more reasons to
choose fusoA familiar sight in many fleets, Rosa has been the best selling bus in its class for ten years running*. Now, with our School bus offering up to 50 seats including the driver, as well as our City Bus with an ultra low floor, there’s more choice then ever before.
Fuso has been producing both large and small buses in Japan for over 50 years, and our experience shows. That’s why all of our buses offer a level of quality and reliability that’s second to none. So if you’re looking for a bus you can trust, talk to your Fuso dealer today.
