“The new Phoenix electric shuttle buses will help us negate the environmental impact of our vehicles while reducing our operating expenses. The fuel and maintenance costs for these vehicles are negligible in comparison to gas or CNG options,” said Rachel Solis, general manager of Parking Concepts at Ontario airport.
