The Warsaw Public Transport Authority (ZTM) has ordered twelve articulated Urbino 18 electric buses from Solaris Bus & Coach.
These new vehicles will be delivered to the Polish capital in 2024-2025. They will join an existing fleet of 150 electric buses already supplied by Solaris in the city, the first of which has been operating in Warsaw since 2015.
The twelve articulated Urbino 18 electric buses will be operated by Miejskie Zakłady Autobusowe (MZA). They will be equipped with Solaris High Power batteries that will be recharged using depot plug-in chargers and pantographs.
The interior of the buses will feature modern passenger information systems, air conditioning and USB charging sockets.
They will each offer 39 seats, 13 of which will be accessible from the low floor. In addition, the buses will feature two wheelchair and stroller-friendly bays, and the onboard buttons will be labelled with Braille alphabet.
