Kinetic Group (stylised as KINETIC; formerly known as AATS Group) is an Australian-based multinational bus company that wholly owns a number of bus operations in Australia and New Zealand, including the SkyBus business, which operates bus services to a number of airports in both countries. Through its 51%-owned subsidiary Go-Ahead Group based in the United Kingdom, Kinetic also operates buses and railway services in the United Kingdom, Singapore, Germany, Ireland and Norway, and the U-Go Mobility joint venture in Sydney.

Kinetic is majority owned by Canadian pension fund OPTrust and British infrastructure manager Foresight Group (who acquired Kinetic's previous co-owner Infrastructure Capital Group in 2022).{{cite web |title=Our shareholders |url=https://www.wearekinetic.com/our-company/our-shareholders |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230907153246/https://www.wearekinetic.com/our-company/our-shareholders |archive-date=7 September 2023 |access-date=7 September 2023 |website=Kinetic}}

The operation ceased when the depot lease expired in November that year.{{cite web|url=https://www.busnews.com.au/kinetic-shuts-down-sydney-commercial-charter-operations/|title=Kinetic shuts down Sydney commercial charter operations|publisher=Australasian Bus and Coach|date=30 September 2024|access-date=19 January 2025}} Kinetic continued to operate buses in Sydney via its U-Go Mobility subsidiary.
