The Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) is poised to enhance its luxury bus fleet, unveiling 20 new Airavat Club Class 2.0 model buses by month's end. Each of these state-of-the-art vehicles is valued at Rs 1.78 crore.

Currently boasting 443 luxury buses, KSRTC officials, including Transport Minister Ramalinga Reddy and KSRTC Chairman S R Srinivas (Vasu), recently inspected the latest models at the Volvo bus manufacturing site near Hoskote.

The buses combine powerful halogen headlights and DRLs with plush interiors and Scandinavian-inspired exteriors.
