State-run Transport Co will propose that its executive committee procures 54 electric vehicle (EV) minibuses on a rental basis to cover five interprovincial routes, according to Managing Director Sanyalak Panwattanalikit.

He disclosed on Tuesday that the plan for a five-year contract is worth 800 million baht and will be proposed to the company's board at the end of this month. The buses are each equipped with 21-30 seats and will serve five key routes during the beginning of their operation.
