Back to your electrification journey

On schedule, on time, and at top quality Electromobility plays a key role in making the transportation sector more sustainable. Moving around people and goods involves specific challenges, and with our comprehensive eMobility approach and our fully-fledged hardware and digital portfolio, you can rest assured that you’ll meet the needs of your customers – whatever type of fleet you have.

Bus fleets

Electrified bus fleets require a mix of overnight charging at the depot and opportunity charging at en-route stations located throughout the city.

Municipal fleets

With a combination of heavy and light duty vehicles, a municipal fleet has diverse needs at the very same depot – requiring both AC and DC charging simultaneously.

Commercial fleets

Usually dealing with last-mile delivery, the light vehicles in a commercial fleet need both en-route opportunity charging and overnight charging at the depot.
