Bus design for Windsor. Click to enlarge. |
One of our primary goals was to position Windsor among the first cities in North America to pioneer the efficient use of electric buses within its public transit authority and to establish Windsor as a hub for the development, manufacture and commercialization of energy products including electric buses.BYD is in the process of completing FMVSS, CMVSS, and other certification testing in North America this year with further plans for fleet sales and deliveries after the first Windsor bus deliveries. BYD’s all-electric vehicles in commercial fleets have traveled over 10 million miles over the last two years. BYD has delivered more than 300 all-electric buses worldwide and has orders for more than 1300 more in 2012, making it the largest electric bus manufacturer in the world, according to the company.
