Learn More About Buses: Van Hool's TDX Series
While double-decker buses can be a fun and novel addition, one reason they are not more popular in North America is their size. The larger a motorcoach the more operators pay for fuel. And higher passenger capacities often lead to longer loading and unloading processes—making them a hard sell for the efficiency-minded U.S. tourism industry.
