from Volvo.

**_“The [Volvo Electric](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/02/efficient-ways-of-building-a-sustainable-business-in-2022/)
buses will open up entirely new opportunities in urban planning. The buses are able
to drive indoors and collect passengers at locations that are currently off-limit
for buses. The silent, electric motor creates a comfortable environment and this
film is intended to demonstrate, in a light-hearted and engaging way, the important
role a silent bus could play in one of life’s small but important moments,” says
Volvo Group PR Manager Karin Wik._**
