almost passed us, but we preferred to the post of the topic when his probation ended as abruptly ended his official tour of our city because averia.Tan short was his time with us there was no opportunity to do as God commands, for atheists Darwin, a photo shoot and consultation of their overall results and findings by T & B, as we have collected information through our supporters and partners to draw some conclusions on its way through our city.
At first glance the bus is very resultón, modern design and seeking maximum ergonomía.El specific model is special for historic districts and hence is quite small, 9.5 meters long by 2.5 meters wide, here now are 12 meters and 18 articulados.Este rigid model is clearly less passenger capacity, about 40 in total between sitting and standing, to remind our readers for their operation is fully electric or if hybrid diesel engine is used only to recharge the battery as the driving wheels in this case the rear are two electric motors, also took advantage of its regenerative braking system to recharge the batteries up to 30%, their autonomy only with the electrical system is about 30 km. and combined up to about 300 km.
During the peak week and circle tube well received by travelers who decided to try a trip in, I get to carry more than 300 who wanted to experience the sensations of a hybrid bus, as respondent appreciate its quiet operation and high brightness inside so that many passengers would love to have this type of buses in the city.
must clarify that this bus only Castrosua assignment to a service on a route for the exclusive morning and afternoon, the trip was free so that the driver did not conduct charge for the service and not to stop except in assigned seats.
With this type of service to T & B is a half, rather basic, go and take the bus passengers, period, a more realistic test had been taken into a route, low cadence of course, to compare with our current buses and see how he defended himself with a schedule and bustling with up / down of passengers, starts, stops enters, exits, climb hills, which by the way they told us it cost, do not tell you if it would raise Avenue Finisterre to cram in a rush hour .... than normal our day to day, so no comparison can be made to work within our normal pace. Our fellow driver
Pereira was fortunate to be chosen to drive the bus during his time and we could tell that'm happy for your convenience but also with 14 years experience in driving a city bus left us his opinion Coruña that even a bus that takes time to implement it in our city as it is and see if it would hold 16 hours of nonstop service today as we have in service buses.
Unfortunately Coruña passing by was not lucky at all, just three faults, one of them by onboard computer, another for a battery overheating, third was the final and definitely just to leave the bus depots and thorough review which resulted in a premature withdrawal of the drive by the house before the end of time test.
Even so grateful for the opportunity to City Hall and Department of Transportation that gave us to see and feel like traveling in a bus last generation to lay foundation for green propulsion and to bring another type of urban transport in the future next call to replace our current fleet is of Castrosua, MAN, and Volvo also make this type of buses, but with different system that once powered the story Pelouro compete in a post on hybrids.
Indeed, there was nothing wrong the red color of our buses, photo courtesy of www.busurbano.tk and also our appreciation of T & B for his brilliant montage.
