EPV Corp., a company with a nearly three-decade history of producing vehicles worldwide, introduced its EcoCoach, a new commuter bus, at the 2014 United Motorcoach Association (UMA) Motorcoach Expo in Los Angeles.
The EPV EcoCoach is designed and manufactured in the U.S. and features EPV’s tested aluminum body construction and a stainless steel chassis. The result is a light, strong, resilient next-generation coach, according to the manufacturer.
Fuel economy is engineered into the EcoCoach, with compressed natural gas (CNG) now being the standard fuel offering using a Cummins ISL-G engine. A conventional diesel option will be available in the third quarter of this year. Extensive testing and validation of the chassis and the complete vehicle ensure years of trouble-free service and operation, according to EPV Corp.
EPV Corp. is the latest generation of a 28-year-old transportation legacy, dedicated to producing vehicles for the public transportation industry in three model ranges: intercity and commuter coaches with CNG or diesel engine; hybrid electric transit buses employing the Capstone microturbine, and all-electric shuttle buses for sustained operation in urban cores.
