Chinese company unveils new type of smart electric buses

A new type of smart electric bus was recently unveiled in Qingdao, eastern China’s Shandong province, by Beijing North Vehicle Group Corporation under China North Industries Group Corporation.

Small, flexible charging facilities for the buses can be installed at existing transit hubs without the need for additional charging stations.

In addition, the buses can be charged through overhead wiring. A five-minute charge can keep the buses running for 40 kilometers thanks to the quick charge technology.

The buses are also equipped with automatic charging bows, which can charge the vehicles on the go.

A number of smart systems have been equipped on the electric buses to offer convenient and safe services, including automatic hazardous cargo detection, driver behavior monitoring, collision avoidance, blind guidance, mobile payment, facial recognition, and smart allocation.
