在一九八八年，當澳巴完成重組不久，便從日產引進Civillian小型巴士，並迅速成為車隊主力。說到這裡必需要強調，所謂小型巴士外觀上跟香港小型巴士同出一撤，但營運環境不同，澳門小型巴士設有企位，令其載客量跟一部中型巴士座位數量相差無幾。Civillian早於七十年代已經由福利引進到澳門街，而之後新福利及澳巴購買的Civillian均屬改良型號，雖然兩巴均有Civillian出現，但論受重用程度，答案肯定是澳巴。澳巴分兩批引進共一百零三架Civillian，次批訂單中的Civillian太平門改為設於車尾。隨著車齡日高及牽涉多宗交通意外，澳巴於二零零六年將手上的Civillian從客運路線中退下來，由五洲龍巴士取代，只保留少量Civillia用作員工接送及車長訓練，但最終所有Civillian亦於稍後時間從路面上絕跡。

就在Civillian投入服務一年後，澳巴購入八架日產柴油CB12大型單層巴士，委託香港聯誠車身裝配，投入服務後跟同配聯誠車身的平治巴士行走澳巴主幹線10。最後一架CB12一直行走到二零一一年七月底，新巴士營運模式運作之前為止，亦代表著日產巴士絕跡於澳巴車隊。部份CB12巴士退役後用作訓練巴士。

Soon after restructured in 1988, TCM introduced 103 Nissan Civillian with two batches and become the mainstream of the fleet. Though Civiliian Is minibuses, with standees provided, the total capacity almost the same with the seatings in a midi-sized single decker. Nissan Civillian first served Macau in 1970s. with Fok Lei and the Civillian operated by TCM Is a newer generation. At the same time Transmac also operated Nissan Civillian same as TCM, but the number of TCM operated already outnumbered with only 6 found in Transmac fleet. In addition, the location of the emergency exit Is located at the rear in second batch. As the accident rate become higher and aging, TCM started to withdraw Civillian since 2006 and only few left for staff bus and training purpose. Finally, no more TCM Civillian found on the road at present.

Instead of Civillian, 8 Nissan Diesel CB12 full-sized single decker were introduced in 1989 and bodied by Luen Shing, a Hong Kong bodybuilder, for serving trunk route 10 along with the Mercedes Benz which also bodied by Luen Shing. The last CB12 was running until the end of Jul., 2011, before the implement of the new mode of public bus service in Macau. Several Nissan CB12 were used as training bus after their withdrawal from the revenue service.
