How is the Electric Drive System Configuration of Electric Buses in China?

The public transportation industry, with its fixed routes and public service characteristics, has become a breakthrough for the promotion and application of pure electric buses. Since 2009, the number of pure electric buses in China has grown rapidly.

In 2018, the number of electric buses in operation in China has surpassed diesel buses and natural gas buses, becoming the largest type of vehicle.

According to reliable government data, taking Shenzhen as an example, by the end of 2022, Shenzhen has achieved 100% pure electrification of buses. An average of 345,000 tons of standard coal is saved annually, and carbon dioxide emissions are reduced by 1.353 million tons.

This article will introduce the parameters and configurations of the electric drive systems on the electric buses of different lengths that are currently common in the Chinese market.

6-meter electric shuttle bus (10-16 seats)

12-meter electric bus (22-46 seats)

18-meter electric bus (31-58 seats)

Battery powered electric buses have zero pollutant emissions, so pure electric buses are an effective measure to control urban air pollution. Various countries are actively introducing the use of electric buses under the promotion of carbon emission policies.
