The eCitaro with the latest generation of NMC3 battery on board is an example of the high level of development at Daimler Buses in the segment for zero-emission city buses. Third-generation lithium-ion batteries introduced at the end of 2022 have a very high energy capacity and are very durable. The solo bus features three battery packs with a total capacity of 294 kWh. Thanks to its high energy capacity, the eCitaro featuring the new generation of batteries is ideal for long route cycles and subsequent mains charging at the depot.

For Mirko Sgodda, Head of Marketing, Sales and Customer Services at Daimler Buses, the awards received in Belgium are clear messages to the industry: "These internationally acclaimed awards raise our leadership role in both the development of electric mobility and the expansion of new safety and assistance systems."
