Quantron AG, a clean tech company and specialist in sustainable passenger and freight transport, made a successful bid in a recent e-bus tender in Italy. From October 2023, six QUANTRON CIAZRIS 12 electric vehicles will be operational in Turin tasked to support the city's public transport system. The new electric buses will be put into service on a newly opened bus route that will start operating in October this year.
The customer is Miccolis, a public limited company based in Bari, which is active in local public transport network, school transport as well as the commercial sector, and operates around 500 buses in different areas of Italy.
The Quantron CIAZRIS 12 EV electric buses are equipped with 363 kWh batteries that facilitate a reliable range of up to 370 km. The 12 metre-long bus offers sufficient space for up to 89 passengers.
In addition, four fully electric minibuses were recently delivered to the municipalities on the island of Elba in order to decarbonise local transport operations. Quantron Italy, market leader in electric-powered minibuses and school buses, has converted these vehicles using the Quantron EV150 kit.
