A battery electric bus is an electric bus that is driven by an electric motor and obtains energy from on-board batteries. Many trolleybuses use batteries as an auxiliary or emergency power source. Battery electric buses offer the potential for zero-emissions, in addition to much quieter operation and better acceleration compared to traditional ...
Three types of electric road systems. An electric bus (black) receives power from the road: (A) with three inductive pickups (red) from a strip of resonant inductive coils (blue) embedded several centimeters under the road (gray); (B) with a current collector (red) sliding over a ground-level power supply rail segment (blue) flush with the surface of the road (gray); (C) with an overhead ...

The first battery electric Xcelsior buses were a powertrain option within the regular Xcelsior line; development was announced in 2011, a prototype was shown in 2012, and regular production began in 2014. [10] The original battery electric Xcelsior bus, offered as an XE40, used a permanent magnet traction motor built by Siemens. [11]
Proterra, a maker of electric vehicles, unveiled an all-electric bus that can charge in 10 minutes. The company unveiled its EcoRide BE35 at its plant in Greenville, S.C., on Dec. 16. The bus will ...
The BKM-321 can be equipped with different motors: DC-BM Russian manufacture, DC (power 170 kW), asynchronous Czech Škoda (with a capacity of 185 kW), asynchronous Belarusian production ANT-155 (with a capacity of 185 kW) and asynchronous motors of the Russian production DTA-U (capacity of 180 kW) and ACCD-250 (150 kW).
Boston Neoplan DMA-460LF dual-mode trolleybus, operating in diesel mode (with its trolley poles lowered). A dual-mode bus is a bus that can run independently on power from two different sources, typically electricity from overhead lines like a trolleybus or from batteries like a hybrid bus, alternated with conventional fossil fuel (generally diesel fuel).
Both the Yutong E10 and Yutong E12 are powered by a 215 kW electric motor capable of producing 3,500 newton-metres (2,600 lbf⋅ft) of torque. The buses carry twelve liquid-cooled lithium iron phosphate batteries with a maximum charging capacity of 422 kWh, allowing for a maximum range of 370 kilometres (230 mi) on a single charge.
