Volgren has marked the handover of its 6000th bus built in Victoria to Dysons, recognising a major milestone for its Dandenong manufacturing site and the long-standing partnerships behind its success.
The occasion reflected the local manufacturing capability, experience and teamwork behind every vehicle built at the site. It also highlighted the long-standing partnership between Volgren and Dysons, with the milestone made even more significant by the date itself — 17 March also marks 29 years since Dysons received its first Volgren bus. Today, Dysons has more than 250 Volgren buses in its fleet, reflecting a shared history and ongoing commitment to supporting public transport outcomes across Victoria.
The 6000th bus milestone is a significant achievement for the Victorian site and for the people who contribute to its success at every stage of the build process. From manufacturing and assembly through to delivery and aftersales support, it reflects the combined effort of teams across the business and the important role the site continues to play in delivering buses for customers and communities.
The event was attended by representatives from Dysons, BYD, SEMMA and BIC, together with Volgren staff, providing an opportunity to recognise the partnerships, industry connections and team effort behind the milestone. The occasion also acknowledged the dedication of the broader Dandenong team, whose capability and commitment continue to underpin the delivery of locally built buses.
Volgren is proud to celebrate this milestone with Dysons and to recognise the role of its Victorian site in achieving this result. The handover of the 6000th bus reflects not only a production milestone, but also the strength of the partnerships, people and local capability behind every vehicle delivered.
