KITE HYDROLINER FCEV
We are introducing the Kite Hydroliner, a brand-new single deck bus powered entirely by hydrogen, in keeping with our mission to guide the world towards a cleaner future. Europe's ambitious net-zero goals can be met with the help of cutting-edge technology in the Kite. In the last quarter of 2023, production of the bus is anticipated to begin.
This hydrogen-powered bus has many features that make it the ideal transport for long-distance travel, including a quick refuelling time. Up to 90 passengers can travel on the Kite, which has a range of up to 640 miles. The bus and its Double Deck sibling, the StreetDeck Hydroliner FCEV, share 86% of the same parts and will therefore significantly benefit operators by lowering the cost of fleet maintenance.
As one of the top hydrogen bus manufacturers, Wrightbus is dedicated to producing high-quality, efficient, and environmentally friendly vehicles that help reduce emissions and combat climate change. Our hydrogen-powered buses are particularly noteworthy, as they offer a sustainable and reliable alternative to traditional diesel buses, with zero emissions and longer ranges. Wrightbus is committed to innovation and sustainability and our hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are a testament to our dedication to creating a greener future for all.
