Date: June 29, 2023Gersthofen, Germany- Quantron AG, a sustainable passenger and freight transport company, made a successful bid in a recent e-bus tender in Italy. From October 2023, six QUANTRON CIAZRIS 12 EV will be operational in Turin tasked to support the city's public transport system. The new electric buses will be put into service on a newly opened bus route that will start operating in October this year. It is estimated that this will save around 409.2 tons of CO2 per year.
The customer is Miccolis, a public limited company based in Bari, which is active in local public transport network, school transport as well as the commercial sector. The company currently operates around 500 buses in different areas of Italy. For Miccolis, QUANTRON's emission-free vehicles are an important step on the way to achieving a more sustainable and climate-neutral fleet.
