The story

Founded by José Castro Suárez in 1948, in O Carballiño.1

The first Castrosua bus started production in 1948. In the mid sixties the company grew through a series of alliances to become a major player in the national market. In 1992 they introduced the first low floor bus in the Iberian market, in 1993 the first natural gas city bus, and in 2003 the first hydrogen-powered bus, delivered to Madrid's municipal bus company EMT.
