Take A Free Ride On A Solar-Powered Bus

You wanna take that ride? After all, you still have not been able to experience riding in any kind of solar-powered vehicle. Now if you wanna experience taking a ride in a free solar-powered ride, you may want to head out to Australia though. In Adelaide to be exact. See, that is where you may want to find that free solar-powered bus ride.

The bus has been given a name. Tindo. The name may not mean much to you but it actually means “sun” in the Aboriginal language. It has been created to function fully through the use of the power of the sun. It does not use any kind of fuel and it is not a hybrid vehicle. This solar-powered bus has been created by New Zealand’s Designline International company.

So you think you wanna own one too? Well, I don’t think it’s up for sale. Although I do hope there would be more buses like this. There’s too much of really old and smoke-belching buses on the streets if you ask me.
