Thomas Built Buses (TBB) and Proterra Inc. say TBB’s Proterra-powered Saf-T-Liner C2 Jouley electric school buses have driven more than 1 million miles for school districts across North America.
“Reaching 1 million miles with our C2 Jouley is a testament to our commitment to sustainable transportation and the continued success of our best-in-class electric product and partnership with Proterra,” says Nick Rini, director of the Freightliner Specialty Vehicles eMobility Group. “Together, we are paving the way for a cleaner and more efficient future for our kids, communities and the transportation industry.”
TBB and Proterra offer school bus operators a comprehensive, turnkey electric vehicle program that includes EV planning and funding consultation, electric school buses, charging systems and charging infrastructure design and installation.
