New Delhi: Tata Motors today said its wholly-owned subsidiary in Spain, Tata Hispano Motors Carrocera SA, has received an order to supply 10 hybrid low-floor buses for public transport in Madrid. "Tata Motors has won an order for supplying 10 CNG series hybrid low-floor city buses, to be built on Tata Motors chassis to EMT Madrid, a Madrid city public transportation company. The buses will be delivered in 2012," the company said in a statement. The hybrid buses will offer improved fuel economy and low emissions compared to a conventional bus, the company said without giving details of the order value. In 2005, Tata Motors acquired a 21 per cent stake in the Spanish bus and coach manufacturer, Hispano Motors Carrocera SA and further raised it to 100 per cent in 2009.
