Buses are perfect e-vehicles. Totally predictable and city buses have relatively short travel distances.

I don’t even live in a city and most of ours are electric. They go between towns and to a few nearby cities.

Good news! But after reading the article, what does it mean, 61% of the city busses, how much in the broader market?

I am left with more questions than answers…

What broader market? Touring cars? Work vans?

61% of the city busses are electric, the rest is not.

What questions are you left with? It’s quite an extensive article on such a narrow topic.

Yeah, you could read it like that but the numbers don’t ad up. With broader market I mean the whole bus market, not just city. Long range electric busses do exist and get sold.

Edit: This is what was missing the mostt

“Electric buses now hold 27.7% market share (up from 21.6%)”

From here
