Of the five BEASTs to be delivered, four will go to the Cutler-Orosi Joint Unified School District and the fifth to the Terra Bella Union Elementary School District. More deliveries in California and Oregon are planned.
School districts with range anxiety when it comes to electric buses may find comfort in a bus that can travel nearly 300 miles on a charge.
Kingmor, dealer of Type A, C, D, and commercial, diesel, gas, propane, and electric buses, has been selected by GreenPower as its primary electric school bus dealer in Virginia.
Available in 35-, 38-, and 40-foot models, BYD’s Type D electric school bus can seat up to 84 passengers and can be equipped with a wheelchair lift.
The all-electric Type D buses, delivered to Madera Unified School District by A-Z Bus Sales Inc., are the first of many to feature vehicle-to-grid capabilities.
The new buses are part of the California Energy Commission's $94 million school bus replacement program to help pupil transportation providers replace more than 200 diesel school buses throughout the state.
