    A diesel bus runs 20-30 L/100km.

    A Toyota Prius runs 5 L/100km.

    Average car occupancy is 1.2 people.

    Break even for a single bus is like 5 Priuses. So a city that has 500,000 car commuters a day would be carbon neutral to swap them with 100,000 busses.

    That’s a lot of bus routes for a city of a million+ people.

    Or a town of 20,000 car commuters would be served with 4,000 bus routes. Not bad for a town under 100,000 people.
