Swedish public transport operator Nobina Stockholm has placed an order for 55 Urbino 15 LE electric buses from Solaris. These impressive tri-axle vehicles, designated as class II, are set to serve suburban routes in the Stockholm region, with an anticipated delivery date in 2024.
Javier Iriarte, the CEO of Solaris Bus & Coach, expressed the company’s pride in earning the trust and responsibility bestowed upon them by Nobina. The Urbino 15 LE electric buses, versatile for both city and suburban routes, feature a powerful 240 kW central motor, powered by Solaris High Energy batteries boasting a capacity exceeding 550 kWh. This means the buses can operate all day, with convenient nighttime recharging. Safety is paramount, with the inclusion of the Mobileye Shield+ driver assistance system.
AMTS Catania’s investment in these electric buses underscores its commitment to reducing emissions and noise pollution while enhancing passenger convenience. Solaris’ Urbino electric buses align perfectly with the needs of the city, providing reliability, efficiency, and advanced safety for the public transportation system.
