A new eBus was launched by BYD and Castrosua, through an official ceremony in Santiago de Compostela, on May 29, 2023.
It is a zero-emission vehicle in the 12-metre category made for Spanish bus operators.
The result of the union of BYD’s electric chassis technology and Castrosua’s experience in body construction, it uses a 422 kWh iron-phosphate battery, and offers a range of over 450 km on a single charge.
It also features the highly configurable Nelec body of Castrosua, which uses 3D modeling during the concept phase, and facilitates the development of all customization and adaptation options, as well as streamlining manufacturing, repair and maintenance processes. The 12-metre BYD-Castrosua eBus can seat up to 92 passengers, making it ideal for city bus services.
“It is a great pleasure for us to present the 12-metre eBus BYD-Castrosua to Spanish customers – said Javier Contijoch, vice president eBus sales of BYD Europe – we are very pleased to collaborate with Castrosua and the presentation of this first model represents a milestone for the partnership between the two companies”.
