See him leave that woman! Caught on tape! Or was he going back to the station? If not he should be fired. And for poor vision if he didn't see her! In Kroger yesterday I asked a passing person, whom I believe was an employee for directions! She stopped & began removing hidden head phones from her ears! I "stopped" (DO YOU WORK HERE)?? She did! Shocking Country, hope the world is not like this!
That doesn't address the practicality, FUNCTIONALITY. If they claim a 20 yr battery life expectancy. And only get 15, 10 or 5. Then you're not gonna save on GAS. You're not going to SAVE MONEY on anything! You're gonna be deep in the hole. And might be DEEP even with a 20 yr life. Depending on how much the BATTERIES COST & whether or not the price will come down!
@jor99912 Exactly what I've said! We don't know, if that FAST CHARGE battery will live 10 or 5 yrs. How does the Mfg know? bus already cost a Million? If it doesn't live up to half what's promised, How much money have you lost?? When I saw the way he left that poor woman running for the Bus! I have to say, who can you trust anyway??
These Batteries may be dead or dying in less than 10, 5 yrs.
BRILLIANT IDEA:: HOW DO THE BATTERIES TAKE IT: Both good statements made here. Any child could imagine the "IDEA". But even with the new Battery Technology, (HOW DO THEY TAKE IT.??) What? about 5 mil per Bus. Projected BATT life 10, 20, 30, yrs?? So untested yet! CHARGING HOT BATTERIES. 5 mil per unit. I'll believe 10 yrs & money saved out of initial costs if it makes 10 yrs.
Simple .. they don't use batteries, they use SuperCapacitors instead ... or UltraCapacitors, if you want to call them that instead, it's the same thing, just different name. They recharge from zero to full in a few minutes, what you see here is probably enough time to recharge it about 25% to 30% or so. The flipside is that it only have a few miles range, but that's allright, it stops so often it doesn't matter.
And it's not untested, Shanghai has had some running since 2006.
it got battery pack down below which can be removed and change in 5 min.... if needed for hot swap... for fast charge it take 440watts for quick charge but in normal plug it can take more then 8 hr

That's one way of reducing your dependence on oil.

Brilliant idea. Cheaper than battery swapping and much more convenient than putting messy power lines throughout the route.

These are Sunwin buses. Sunwin is a 50/50 joint venture between Volvo and SAIC of Shanghai and they are made in China
Nice concept on charging at busy bus stops.

Great idea isn't it.
Wonder how good an idea it would be to slowly move toward having less n less people on Earth that are using it's dwindling natural resources?

wow... thats great... how long does it take to charge....??
would have been nice if you had shown some details about this bus....
