Hyundai launched its first electric minibus with a 250 km range

 Introduction

Hyundai Motors has launched its first electric minibus, County Electric. It will be economical and environmentally friendly as compared to diesel-powered buses. Currently, this minibus will be available in the Korean market.

You get so many security features

The Hyundai electric minibus also has the latest safety technology to prevent accidents when passengers climb and take off. An ultrasonic sensor located near the middle door does not allow the doors to close when the movement of a passenger is detected. If any part of the body gets stuck between the doors, it sounds an alarm to prevent injury. The ultrasonic sensor is also connected to the bus's acceleration paddle, which prevents the bus from moving from a stop when the passenger's movement is detected. County Electric has a virtual engine sound system and rear parking assist system to warn pedestrians and prevent accidents.

Battery and power

This Hyundai electric minibus is equipped with a high-power 128-kWh lithium-ion-polymer battery that can cover up to 250 kilometers on full charging. The battery can be completely energized in a short time utilizing a standard Combo 1 DC framework (in light of 150kW charging). It takes 17 hours to charge the battery through a domestic 220V outlet. The 220V charger is offered as an option.

The county electric bus has a length of 7,710 mm and comes with 15 to 33 seats. The bus features an electronically controlled, air-over-hydraulic (AOH) brake system, which comes with a more robust brake disc to handle increased vehicle loads due to the battery. According to Hyundai, running at speeds of 50 to 80 kilometers per hour gives this electric minibus acceleration 30 percent faster than the diesel model.

 More Space

The use of electric motors instead of diesel engines have increased the bus space, making passenger movement easier. The bus is available with a twin swing-type rear emergency door, with 220-mm-high backrest seats and a new seat belt system that can reduce abdominal pressure during emergency braking.

With the boom in the electric vehicles market, Hyundai is also moving towards green transformation. "County Electric is a zero-emission bus that provides tremendous safety and convenience features for drivers and passengers," said Yun Li, vice President and Head of the Commercial Vehicle Products Group, in a press statement. "As demand for electric vehicles picks up in the commercial vehicle market, Hyundai County is accelerating the introduction of vehicles such as Electric," he said.
