2019-04-16 In order to renew its fleet, which serves the Public Transportation passengers of Belo Horizonte and the Metropolitan Area, Viação Sidon acquired 60 of the Apache VIP units, produced by Caio Induscar, the largest urban car body manufacturer in Brazil.

The other 30 vehicles, which have air conditioning, arrive at the Transport and Transit System of Belo Horizonte (BHTrans), starting in April this year, in collaboration with the mobility service.
