It is known that this new energy bus model is the first bus with the complete proprietary intellectual property right in China. The energy recovery device works during descending, level track or braking. The energy-saving for one bus can reach over 22%, the cost-saving exceed 2,000 Yuan and more than 500 kilograms reduce.

It is introduced that the power motor of the new energy bus can work both for energy recovery and good retarding so that the life service of brake shoe can obviously improve during descending the hill. During ascending, the maximum power-assisted from power motor comes to around 80kw, which made from energy recovery. Hengtong new energy buses get broad good reputation, open the marketing channel and become popular in the bus market.

The successful releasing of 50 new energy buses and formal delivery to Chongqing Bus Company means a lot for the promotion of "Ten Cities & Thousand Vehicles" and marks the essential step for this project in Chongqing. Based on the local condition, the first Hengtong new energy buses all apply gas-electric hybrid power, different from the fuel-electric hybrid power buses in other test city for "Ten Cities & Thousand Vehicles".

 


Due to the limitation of geographical environment for natural gas resources, the market share of fuel-electric hybrid power is higher than gas-electric hybrid power. It offers essential condition for gas-electric hybrid power vehicles because of rich gas resources. The great action of Hengtong Bus promotes a leap step for energy-efficiency and emission-reducing in Chongqing and becomes the vanguard in the development of new energy bus industry.
