Autobuses integrales

Non-PRO Spanish to English Other Transport / Transportation / Shipping
SPAIN /ARGENTINA. Not really a translation problem per se, I just need to know the difference between conventional and 'integral' buses. The only context I have to go on is an alphabetical list of items:

"Autobuses convencionales con capacidad de mas de 30 asientos
Autobuses integrales con capacidad de más de 30 asientos
Camiones unitarios de 2 ejes con peso bruto vehicular mínimo de 11,794kg.
Camiones unitarios de 3 ejes con peso bruto vehicular mínimo de 14,500kg"
Proposed translations (English)
4 +2 integral bus
Change log

Spanish term (edited): autobus integral
Selected

integral bus

This seems very straightforward.


"Chassis manufacturer - builds the underframe in a body-on-frame type construction
Body manufacturer - builds the coachwork a body-on-frame type construction
Integral manufacturer - builds entire buses, often using no underframe at all."
Note from asker:
Thought it looked odd (am more used to seeing things like pan/arroz integral).

I always say these buses/coaches remind me of caterpillars! I think it's because their wing mirrors look like antennae.

In the case of buses and coaches, note typical of integral, markets, chassis buses and markets that have been imposed mixed forms such as complete buses with chassis components. For example, central Europe, North America and Japan are typical markets of integral buses, while in other areas using both integral buses and vehicles based on chassis with rear engine.

English: Buses pictured in the UK which are of integral construction - ie the bus is built and sold as a complete vehicle, as opposed to the alternate body on chassis system. This category is only for true inseparable integrals - buses built exclusively on one body chassis combination (eg the DAF DB250 / Optare Spectra), and buses where the body and chassis comes from the same manufacturer (eg the Alexander Dennis Enviro400 / Alexander Dennis Enviro400) are categorised as body on chassis buses, not integrals.

I needed to convince myself that 'integral buses' existed.
