KITE ELECTROLINER BEV
With the most recent addition to our fleet, it's time to establish new sustainability benchmarks. The Kite Electroliner BEV is the face of environmentally sustainable transportation. It has been engineered to optimize grid-to-wheel efficiency and has a 2.5-hour charge time. Thanks to the Kite Electroliner BEV, we are now the only business in the UK to sell four zero-emission electric vehicles: Double and single deck Hydrogen Electric and Battery Electric models. It is a great option for intra-urban travel because it features fast charging and a range of up to 400 kilometres on a single charge. Also, with 88 seats available with modern facilities, commuters can expect a comfortable ride.
Additionally, it shares 86% of its parts with our Double Deck version, which can save operators time and money by lowering the complexity and expense of fleet maintenance.
