GAZ Group has delivered an electric bus to the Siberian city of Tyumen for trial operations connecting the airport to the train station.

The electric bus was supplied using the pistol type charging station with a capacity up to 150 kW. The batteries will be charged at night and on turning terminals.

The cruising range on a single charge is calculated for 100km, with average daily mileage of 220km. The sharp, continental climate in Tyumen will help to evaluate the performance of the electric bus at low and high temperatures.

GAZ developed its LIAZ-5292 e-bus based on the model which has already been proven in other Russian cities and is designed to transport 75 passengers using a powertrain compliant with international environmental standards. 

In July this year, the same GAZ electric bus finished long tests in Russia, with the vehicle completing more than 13,500km, with 25,000 passengers transported.

GAZ Group evaluated the work of the e-bus in different weather conditions: during winter at temperatures of minus 35 degrees, in rainy spring and in summer.
