Siemens and Vinamotor roll out first hybrid bus
The bus is the result of nine months of close collaboration between Siemens and Vinamotor and represents a milestone for green bus system development in Vietnam.
According to Siemens Vietnam, the Siemens ELFA hybrid-drive technology helped city buses to reduce fuel consumption by up to 50 per cent significantly saving costs. The operation of these buses will also mitigate the impact on the environment through lower exhaust emission and provide maximum comfort for passengers. Furthermore, riders and drivers travelling behind the bus can enjoy clean air when the diesel engine of the bus stops.
Do Nga Viet, chairman of Vinamotor, said the state-owned firm would cooperate with Siemens to manufacture buses to replace all old buses in Hanoi.
