In October this year, Mosgortrans will be handed over for testing electric buses “NEFAZ-52994E”. Modern environmental clean public transport was manufactured by Kama automobile plants in collaboration with the engineering company Drive Electro.
A new generation of electric bus features high rates of economic profitability. Carrying so much same passengers and cargo, how many diesel bus similar the size, the electric bus from KamAZ spends twenty percent less energy. This allows one such vehicle as a whole pay off in ten years. In addition, do not forget about obvious advantage in the form of environmental cleanliness.
The NEFAZ-52994E can accommodate eighty-five passengers. The bus has an electro-portal with integrated motor wheels. Highly modern lithium titanate batteries have significant capacity and frost resistance, allowing the bus function effectively at low temperatures. This is a virtue makes it unnecessary to construct heated rooms for the winter parking of such vehicles.
Using half pantographs, the electric bus is able to charge from ultra-fast recharging stations for just a couple of minutes. Besides, in in the event of an unexpected battery drain, the machine can always use a trolleybus network. On one full battery the bus travels about a hundred kilometers.
KamAZ also plans to launch a miniature low-floor electric bus for twenty-two seated passengers who will serve as a minibus.
Today on Earth begins the gradual displacement of habitual cars powered by an internal combustion engine, electric vehicles, and instead of human-driven vehicles Unmanned aerial vehicles come – and this is already becoming an order time. According to forecasters, by the middle of this century all ground transportation will be updated. Maybe electric the car will not become dominant in this case (we still don’t know what wonderful discoveries the world is preparing for us), but what machines will become exclusively unmanned, – this, experts say, will happen certainly …
