Before making the purchase of 400 units Zhongtong electric buses, Zhongtong Public Transport had made thorough investigations in China. “We want vehicles that must be able to recharge and discharge in -40℃ and should maintain a competitive continuous driving distance. In addition, they should fully meet the demanding transportation tasks in the day time after being recharged at night,” said Li Yanming.
