14 Febbraio 2024 - 2:00PM
Turin, 14th February 2024. HEULIEZ, the urban
bus brand of Iveco Group (EXM: IVG), has been selected by Régie des
Transports Métropolitains (RTM, the public transport operator of
Marseille) to supply 200 electric buses, with a contract worth 125
million euros.
This significant order marks a major step
forward in the large-scale electrification of Marseille's public
transport network. It will lead to over a third of the RTM fleet
becoming 100% electric by 2027, contributing substantially to the
city's energy transition goals.
The new generation GX 337 ELEC HEULIEZ buses
chosen by RTM will be equipped with roof rails that enable them to
be recharged via a descending pantograph, either at the depot or
rapidly during service, offering a flexible and efficient solution
for the city's public transport needs. An initial delivery of 35
units is anticipated by the end of 2024, with the remaining
vehicles scheduled to be supplied by 2027.
Domenico Nucera, President, Bus Business Unit,
Iveco Group, commented: “We are really proud that Marseille has
chosen us as a partner in its ambitious electrification project,
and we look forward to supporting the city as it transitions
towards a more sustainable future. This sizable contract
underscores the effectiveness of our electric mobility solutions in
meeting the decarbonisation needs of public transport operators all
over Europe.”
