作者：

Highlights：

• Bus fleet operators purchase chassis and build body according to the norms.

• The fleet operators have their own selection criteria for chassis.

• Bus chassis manufacturers satisfy these selection criteria differently.

• Selection of appropriate chassis is a complex decision-making scenario.

• A framework for selection of best chassis is developed using a hybrid methodology.
