Electric buses are set to become an increasingly ubiquitous fixture on our roads and highways in the coming years, which is precisely why Proterra has put a lot of work and resources into developing an electric bus that is capable of exhibiting an extraordinary range of nearly 1,000 km on a single charge.
The Proterra Catalyst E2, which recently undergoing testing over at the Michelin proving grounds in South Carolina, will feature a storage capacity in the range of 440 to 660 kilowatt-hours. While it will not be able to offer four-figure range during practical consumer applications, it will still feature more than enough range to easily negotiate American transit routes.
This electric bus is truly a high-tech automotive accomplishment that will allow for efficient and eco-friendly mass transit.
