Chariot e-bus ultracapacitor technology has a number of advantages over conventional diesel traction

Length: 18 m articulated
Seats: 39+5 foldable
Disabled seating: 2
Standing room: 95

The Chariot Motors pure ultracapacitor city e-bus features Aowei’s latest and most advanced ultracapacitor. The Higer Bus Company assembles it in its world leading facilities.
Our Future of public transport, ultracapacitor Chariot e-bus is a 18-metre low-floor city bus. It has 39+ (5 foldable) seats, two rooms for a wheelchairs, and standing room for 95, plus two disability ramps. It complies with European homologation certifications, a strict market requirement in the EU, including the ECE R100 energy storage device standard.

The ultracapacitor offers advantages over conventional diesel traction. It cuts operational costs by 80 percent per kilometre. Without a reciprocating engine and transmission, maintenance costs 30 percent less.

Here are other big Chariot ultracapacitor e-bus advantages:

  • null

    The ultracapacitor technology by Aowei

    With 16 years’ commercial operation in Europe, Israel, and Shanghai, and over 85 million km of roadway, Aowei’s ultracapacitor is the most mature energy store in today’s the fast-charging e-bus market;

  • null

    16 years of experience

    16 years’ experience indicate strongly that the ultracapacitor’s lifespan is comparable with that of the rest of the vehicle;

  • null

    Significantly less powerful charging infrastructure

    This means less costly and requiring smaller available capacity of the power source;

  • null

    Wide temperature range of performance

    The system performs fine in temperatures between -40o​C and +60o​​C;

  • null

    Highest safety level

    Ultracapacitors do not catch fire or blow up in crashes, making them very safe;

  • null

    No harmful or toxic substances

    Ultracapacitors contain no toxins. Their electrolyte decomposes to water or hydrogen/oxygen, leaving aluminium, copper, and steel, meaning no pollution and no hidden disposal costs;

  • null

    Unsurpassed recuperation levels

    Unsurpassed recuperation levels enabled by the ultracapacitor’s ability to absorb extremely high charging currents yield exceptionally low power demand by the vehicle’s power train;

  • null

    Passenger capacity and autonomy

    The Chariot ultracapacitor e-bus has the passenger capacity and autonomy of a traditional diesel city bus;

  • null

    No need of cells balancing

    Unlike fast charging batteries, ultracapacitors need no balancing on a cell level;

  • null

    Zero defects of UC cells

    Ultracapacitors have demonstrated zero defects for almost a whole decade;

  • null

    98% operational availability

    The Chariot ultracapacitor e-bus offers almost 98 percent operational availability.
