⛽ Coaches — 32 to 47 Seats
Market reality, stated plainly: there is NO mass-produced 32–47-seat petrol coach officially sold in Vietnam, and almost none worldwide — this class runs on diesel and, increasingly, electricity. The only petrol-engined large coaches are export-only Chinese models for markets with cheap petrol. They are listed for completeness, clearly flagged.
