Daniel Ciolan, general manager of Solaris, estimates Romania’s bus fleet is close to 10,000-12,000 units, with around 1,000 being electric ones.

“In Poland, Solaris holds 60% of the market, while in Romania its market share stands at 30%”.

Solaris Bus & Coach SA is one of Europe’s biggest producers of buses and trolleybuses. In line with data previously provided by Solaris officials in Romania, in 2019 around 4-5% of the company’s overall revenues globally came from Romania. The company entered the domestic market in 2006.
