Honest Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

6m electric busThe 8m model offers more passenger capacity and better load distribution but requires more space at stops and terminals
10m electric busThe 8m is more agile in tight city streets and uses less energy per passenger, but carries fewer riders per trip
Diesel-powered city busElectric avoids fuel cost and emissions but requires charging infrastructure and has higher upfront cost
Use Guide

Using It Well

  • Avoid deep discharges below 20% state of charge to extend battery life
  • Use the heating system only when ambient temperature drops below 5°C to save energy
  • Replace brake pads and fluid according to the manufacturer's schedule, not a fixed interval
  • Keep the air filter clean and check the cooling system for the battery pack monthly
