Vectiaren autobusa, CAFek sortutako enpresa (Argazkia: Movilidad electrica)

According to information released by CAF, the Polish company Solaris has two facilities in Poland. CAF says it has become “one of the leaders in the bus sector” thanks to this operation.

Solaris had a profit of 444 million euros last year and 2,319 people work in the company. In 2017, it sold 1,397 buses, which operate in 700 cities and more than 32 countries.

In 2013, CAF set up a joint subsidiary with Castrosu: Assisted by Vectia. Specialized in hybrid and electric buses, this acquisition aims to give new impetus to this line.
