Deutsche Bahn has ordered 25 Ebusco 2.2 electric buses from Ebusco to operate in the Speyer region of Germany.
This latest order contributes to a total of 140 buses ordered under Deutsche Bahn’s framework agreement with Ebusco.
It also marks the largest single order under the Deutsche Bahn framework to date.
Each 12-metre low-floor bus will be equipped with a battery pack exceeding 400 kWh, enabling them to operate for an entire day on a single charge.
Peter Bijvelds, Co-CEO & Founder of Ebusco said:For over two years we have been a proud supplier of electric buses for Deutsche Bahn. We are extremely grateful for the trust shown by Deutsche Bahn, and are excited to continue the long-standing partnership that we share. The Ebusco 2.2 buses have proven to be excellent buses, show good Total Cost of Ownership performance, and are therefore perfectly suited for city and intercity transportation. We are grateful to Deutsche Bahn, and look forward to supplying even more electric buses in the coming two years.
The framework agreement between Ebusco and Deutsche Bahn was established in April 2022 and was extended during Busworld in October 2023.
The agreement designates Ebusco as the primary supplier of 12- and 18-metre electric buses to Deutsche Bahn until the end of 2026.
95% of the Ebusco buses ordered through the Deutsche Bahn framework are the Ebusco 2.2 model. These vehicles can travel up to 550 kilometres on a single charge, making them ideal for both city and intercity routes.
