Daimler Buses Unveils Electric Intercity Bus, Cologne Launches Charging Pilot
Daimler Buses is set to revolutionise sustainable travel with its latest innovations. The company is unveiling the eIntouro, a battery-electric intercity bus, at Busworld Europe in Brussels. Meanwhile, Cologne is kicking off a pilot project to install four fast-charging points for electric buses and coaches.
The eIntouro, due to be revealed at the Busworld Europe exhibition, can travel up to 500 kilometers on a single charge. It can be equipped with one or two LFP batteries, ensuring a long range for intercity travel. Daimler Buses plans to introduce fuel cell coaches by 2030, following the launch of battery-electric coaches.
Cologne is at the forefront of this sustainable initiative. The city is installing four public fast-charging points for electric buses and coaches. This pilot project aims to support zero-emission travel and advance sustainable tourism infrastructure. Daimler Buses Solutions will oversee the planning, construction, operation, and maintenance of these charging stations.
Daimler Buses is not stopping at Cologne. The company plans to install public charging stations for electric buses and coaches across Europe starting in 2026. This ambitious move is set to transform the continent's public transportation landscape.
The eIntouro's unveiling at Busworld Europe marks a significant step towards sustainable intercity travel. Cologne's pilot project demonstrates the city's commitment to green tourism. Looking ahead, Daimler Buses' plans for Europe signal a promising future for zero-emission public transportation.
