First Diesel-Electric Hybrid Buses Hit The Road In Budapest
- 19 Jan 2015 8:00 AM
All 28 buses will be air-conditioned, accessible to wheelchair users (BKK is planning to run only low-floor buses on its entire Budapest network by 2018), and fitted with the electronic passenger information system FUTÁR. Passengers’ safety will be enhanced by 11 on-board cameras. The 28 hybrid buses are planned to operate in the capital until at least 2023.
In November 2014, BKK announced that over 200 new, air-conditioned, low-floor and environmentally friendly MAN Lion’s City A21 and Mercedes-Benz Connecto G buses will arrive to the city to replace worn-out public transport vehicles in several phases, beginning from May 2015.
