According to the recent data provided by Jiangsu Wuzhong Bus Company, Higer ISG plug-in hybrid buses are capable of saving oil consumption by 40%, and reducing emmission by 90%. Unaffected by the charging pole facilities, these buses can be charged in three different ways.
From Jan. 7 to 14, 2014, Higer plug-in hybrid bus KLQ6119GCHEV1A was put into use in Jiangsu Wuzhong Bus company. Travelling on No. 505 Bus Route, the bus travels about 212 Km everyday. During the trial operation, the bus consumes 22.03 kg gas without plug-in per 100 km compared with 34.56 kg consumed by 11.5 meter LNG buses for the same distance, thus saving gas by 36.26%, When it"s plugged in, the saving rate can reach 41%,

Since late 2013, the leading technology in the market has upgraded to ISG system, featuring high stability, reliability and oil economy. Sources indicate buses with ISG system are 5-10% efficient in terms of oil consumption compared with the same type of buses with BSG system. The ISG system, independently developed by Higer, boasts even higher energy efficiency.
Higer Bus has long been actively involved in researching and developing new energy buses. By cooperating with Tsinghua University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Shanghai Tongji University, the bus manufacturer based in Suzhou boasts strong R&D capabilities and has already received dozens of patents. Currently, Higer buses are highly recognized in the market. So far, the number of the company"s hybrid and plug-in hybrid buses has reached 3,000 units in the market.
Higer ISG system is composed of driving motor, engine, battey, ultra capacitor, whole-body vehicle controllers, electric steering machine, spare parts controller. With low oil consumption, low oil emission, high price-performance rate, high reliability and comfortability, the system is capable of realizing electric steering, and braking energy recycling, etc.
In terms of oil economy, Higer"s pure electric start-up can save oil by 10%, idling stop-start system by 11%, braking energy recycling by 2%, intelligence operation plan by 4%. Thus, Higer bus with ISG technologoy can save energy by up to 40%.
