Busworld Europe 2025, held in Brussels, was the most expansive edition yet – 559 exhibitors from 40 countries, including 81 bus manufacturers, occupied 82,000 m² of exhibition space. Over 45,000 visitors from 101 countries and 1,200+ congress delegates walked the 6.8 km of corridors, underlining the event's status as the bus industry's global nerve centre. But the spotlight this time wasn't only on new buses. It was the larger universe of tier suppliers, from powertrain, thermal, electronics, to digital innovators who commanded attention. Their showcases reflected a strategic shift from supplying components to delivering full-system efficiency, sustainability, and intelligence.
