Muni's fleet of diesel-electric hybrid buses is the third largest in the nation, and there are plans in place to replace the existing diesel fleet with hybrid buses. Continuing the trend, Muni's fleet of electric trolleybuses is one of the oldest and largest remaining in the United States. A summary of the current and historic vehicles follows below.

VIIs. At the large end of the scale, Muni's articulated diesel fleet is made up of Neoplans AN460s. The Orion VIIs (both 30 ft and 40 ft models) are unique in the Muni fleet in that they are powered by a hybrid diesel-electric system, with one being a Wi-Fi enabled bus.

The Orion VII do not operate on the 44 O'Shaugnessy and the 54-Felton due to vandals flipping the switches on the back of the hybrid buses.
In December 2007, Muni acquired a double decker diesel bus for testing purposes. Its proponents claim that the double decker makes more efficient use of Muni's limited service bays, that the lack of an articulation joint will result in a lower cost of ownership, and that the shorter length will also be a boom in congested areas. Its detractors claim that dwell time is increased because there are fewer exits than on an articulated bus, and that Muni's traditionally lax security will render the top level of the bus unsafe.

Historically, Muni has run standard length buses from a wide variety of manufactures. Articulated buses were sourced from MAN (retired in 2002) and New Flyer

es (ETBs) were very popular in the United States throughout much of the 20th century. Today, San Francisco is one of five cities in the United States with an operational ETB fleet. Muni's ETB fleet is one of the largest in the nation, and services many parts of the city. Initially the ETBs were met with resistance, as residents preferred the uncluttered skylines that the streetcars provided. However, after the 1906 earthquake, ETBs were seen as a cheaper option than rebuilding the cable car infrastructure and eventually the resistance faded. Indeed, there are plans in the works to electrify existing diesel lines.
