The electric motor is powered by a battery system, which charges during braking. The bus operates in pure electric mode at lower speeds and uses the diesel engine at higher speeds, optimizing fuel efficiency. This hybrid system results in up to 30-40% lower fuel consumption and reduced noise levels, especially in stop-and-go traffic conditions.
