diesel bus
Fuel-burning public transport
A diesel bus is a bus powered by a diesel engine, the standard configuration for most public transit and intercity buses throughout the 20th century.
The term has become more prominent as electric and natural gas alternatives have entered fleets, creating a need to distinguish traditional buses: The city is replacing its diesel buses with electric models.
