Warrenville, Ill,USA -The Journal of Commerce Online, by William B. Cassidy -Jun 16, 2009: -- Federally mandated emissions controls will add $6,000 to the price of a 2010-model-year diesel bus, vehicle manufacturer Navistar says... Navistar will use a combination of advanced fuel injection, air management, electronic controls and proprietary combustion technology to meet the Environmental Protection Agency’s 2010 emissions requirements for on-highway diesel engines.. The company’s IC Bus subsidiary builds commercial buses and school buses... Truck makers, including Navistar, face the same requirements for commercial trucks. Shippers and motor carriers are concerned about the impact of higher prices on carrier profitability and transport costs... (Photo: IC Bus's Hybrid Series)Labels: hybrid buses
