Efficiency of Semi-Autonomous and Fully Autonomous Bus Services in Trunk-and-Branches Networks

Table 3

Original data used in the model. The size consists of seated and standing capacity. The overhead and profit margin are based on the total operating cost, which is the sum of the on-vehicle crew cost and the distance-related direct operating cost. Data source: Australian Transport Council [7].

Type	Size (pax.)	Annual capital cost (€)	On-vehicle crew costs (€/vehicle/hour)	Vehicle (direct operating) costs (€/bus/km)	Overhead (%)	Profit margin (%)
Mini	19	9.95	20.79	0.39	21	6
Midi	40	17.14	20.79	0.49	21	6
Rigid standard	64	23.31	20.79	0.57	21	6
