Local bus assembling company AVM Africa will this year introduce a new bus model comprising a body made from local components and an engine from China.
The company is currently assembling buses with DAF engines from Holland. Capacity utilisation at AVM had shrunk during the economic downturn of the past decade.
AVM Africa general manager Engineer Siyaniso Mukonoweshuro said introduction of the Chinese engine would lower production costs by 50% while production capacity would surge.
