IIRC the Volvo uses an AMT. Many drivers here praise it too.

Buses have been automatic here since the 1970s. Earlier in some instances.

There were some prototype buses with automatic transmission here in the 70s, but it took longer to become widespread. Nowadays it's a mandatory equipment for articulated buses in Brazil, but not for other types of bus for which it's still optional.
