Keolis orders Yutong E12s for Denmark
Keolis is ordering a further 20 Yutong electric buses for Odense, Denmark, following on from an earlier contract for 88 electric buses in Bergen, Norway, according to a report by www.tv2fyn.dk. The buses will be operated for FynBus from next spring, replacing existing diesel vehicles.
The 12m buses have capacity for 66 passengers with 33 seated and following a planned implementation of light rail in the municipality in late 2021, the fleet will comprise 20 electric buses, 18 hybrids and 14 diesels.
Yutong already has a presence in Denmark since Roskilde started a move towards a 100 per cent electric fleet with 20 Yutong E12 buses operating on nine routes.
