Jebsen & Jessen Industrial Solutions will oversee the sale and service of Mellor’s Sigma and Orion-E buses in Germany and Austria.

The new 'Sigma' range of integral buses will be offered in six lengths - two of which (7m and 10m) are immediately available to order. Mellor claims they have achieved significant reductions in cost and energy usage by employing lightweight materials throughout.

The site, expected to be completed in Q3 2022, will be the new home of e-mobility subsidiary Promech Technologies and will have room for manufacturing, R&D, and offices.

Rochdale-based bus manufacturer, Mellor, has expanded its electric bus range with the introduction of two new full-electric, zero-emissions buses.

Specialist vehicle design and manufacturing group, Woodall Nicholson Holdings Ltd (WNHL) of Bolton, UK, which builds light- and medium-duty commercial vehicles under various brand names (which include Mellor Bus, Trekka Bus and VCS, see below) has added a fourth division to its group portfolio.

Mellor Coachcraft, part of Woodall Nicholson's bus division, revealed its second generation all electric bus, the new Orion E, at the CV Show in Birmingham.
