Why is it masculine?

Autobuses is masculine because it's a shortened form of "autómvil omnibus" (automobile for everyone), where "omnibus" is a masculine Latin noun meaning "for all," and the masculine gender was retained when the term was abbreviated. The word ultimately derives from Latin "omnis" (all) and has maintained its masculine grammatical gender through Spanish usage.
