CRRC C12 Bus made its debut at IAA 2016
Wang Jian, an expert in bus industry, points out that currently Turkey and Brazil are the two major bus manufacturing countries in the world. In addition, Japanese and South Korean bus brands are quite influential in some regions across the world. How to internationalize our indigenous brands is a huge challenge faced by all bus brands in China. In the EU market in particular, it has internationally well known brands such as Benz and MAN. What’s more, the market has always been famous for its stringent standards for energy conservation and emission reduction.
CRRC's after-sales personnel provided timely and comprehensive service for customers
Despite all these difficulties, Mr. Shen says the company can and must seek mutual growth and development with its foreign customers in an era of global economy. At Hanover Commercial Vehicle Exhibition, CRRC displayed its C12 electric city bus particularly made for European market. With low-floor access and three doors, the bus offers its passengers more spacious room and boasts even larger passenger loading capacity. After being recharged for just one hour, C12 is able to drive 260 kilometers continuously. Its T-Power system is 30% lighter compared with traditional power system, and thus it helps the vehicle cut its energy consumption by 50%.
According to Mr. Shen, going-out is not enough, it is also intended to improve our products and better our services in the domestic market.
