Changes in the shape of the bus

When the original bus concept was born, because there was no technology to realize a perfect power system, only horses could be used to pull the car. In 1827, the owner of a bathroom in Paris, the French Republic, used a bus to pick up customers. The original bus was like a long box and was drawn by horses.

Subsequent buses gradually developed towards humanization. With fully enclosed glass, the bus was no longer subject to the influence of the weather, the space became larger, the passenger capacity became more and more, and the shape became more and more beautiful.

The development and changes of buses also make us rethink the fate of city buses.

After the city has developed to a certain stage, at the moment when various new public transportation methods are emerging, the bus has the disadvantage in terms of convenience and economic benefits.

Should traditional buses obey the fate of being eliminated and retreat to subways and light rails, or should they actively seek ways to improve to make up for their shortcomings?

It may be a little too early to think about this question now. After all, there are only a few cities where new-type public transportation such as subways are popularized, and buses are still the first choice for many people to travel. However, as the veteran of the public transportation industry, the bus cannot follow the old traditions and wait to die. In terms of energy saving, environmental protection, humanization, and intelligence, we must continue to develop. In addition, we should also pay attention to the improvement of the economic benefits of the industry, save costs, increase profits, so as not to be eliminated.
