  • C&J Double Decker coaches can replace up to 81 automobiles on the highway — saving even more.
  • C&J buses currently provide 184 passenger miles per gallon (MPG)… more than double the second most fuel-efficient transportation alternative.
  • C&J motorcoaches emit the least amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) per passenger than any other transportation vehicle. A full C&J bus cuts emissions by roughly 90% compared to the private automobiles of those passengers (collectively).
