These 12-metre electric city buses will be built in New South Wales and feature a stainless steel chassis and aluminium side panels.

According to Scania, the new e-chassis was developed to meet the demands of medium- to heavy-duty operations with an increased passenger capacity compared to the 4x2.

The ‘eTGX’ truck was handed over to logistics group Jacky Perrenot of Saint-Donat-sur-l’Herbasse earlier in April at MAN’s service centre in Lyon.

The Israeli company successfully raised USD36.4m from offering its shares to a group of strategic investors, which “strengthens [the company’s] cash position ahead of planned vehicle deliveries”.

An ‘eTGX’ tractor unit will be put on the road, pulling DPD semi-trailers on a route from the firm’s delivery hub in Hinckley in central England.

Workhorse’s step vans will be installed with telematics hardware and integrated with the ‘MyGeotab’ platform.

Ten ‘Trollino’ 18-metre trolleybuses will be used to transport passengers in the Bosnian capital, Sarajevo.

This will aid GreenPower’s expansion into the State of New Mexico and across the U.S. electric school bus market.

This figure of 14,405 for city buses with alternative drivelines was marginally higher (+6.5%) than the 13,466 units registered in 2023, which was due, DVV explained, to higher volumes of electric buses.

The government announced twelve separate awards to local authorities totalling GBP37.8m in value and funding the introduction of up to 319 new buses in the next two years.

'Kunshi' chassis offers improved range and higher payloads.

Trial production to start in Q4, 2025.
