Product description
At this year’s UITP Global Summit, Solaris will showcase its 12-metre Urbino electric bus, which was delivered to TMB Barcelona earlier this year, an operator providing public transport services in the city hosting the summit. The bus is equipped with all the requisite state-of-the-art technological e-mobility features, such as efficient next-generation batteries and innovative driver assistance systems. The vehicle, which is part of the city’s fleet, is an example of a battery-powered bus that offers the operator a convenient, all-day range. With an electric vehicle, such operability is possible due to modern batteries and a possibility of charging the batteries via a pantograph during the day. Barcelona is a city that has successfully integrated charging stations into its urban infrastructure.
