The commune of Pirque, located in the Santiago Metropolitan Region of Chile, has introduced four electric buses that are already in operation.
These vehicles will not only help reduce the carbon footprint of the commune but also improve connectivity for residents, particularly students who need reliable and free transportation.
Mayor Jaime Escudero Ramos emphasized that Pirque now has the first electro-terminal in the southern area of Santiago.
