Urban transport operations
Achieving sustainable mobility
Metropolitan areas all over the world are affected by the rise in transport need that comes with urbanisation. This presents challenges in terms of congestion as well as emissions and pollution that affect both people and the environment.
Much can be gained by reducing the number of vehicles and instead commuting together, something that requires an attractive public transport system. To further reduce emissions, the system has to consist of energy-efficient vehicles running on electricity or renewable fuels, depending on the operation and local conditions. Scania´s buses and services allow for sustainability to go hand in hand with operating economy - a prerequisite for making sustainable transport happen on a wide scale.
Explore our new generation of buses, coaches and chassis. Energy efficient, reliable, durable and powerful with built in state-of-the-art safety system and a first class driver area and more. Enter our Bus Experience and be inspired.
POWERTRAINS FOR DIFFERENT REGIONAL NEEDS
Minimising emissions in a metropolitan area is largely about what technology is most suitable in different types of traffic. In some operations – most notably in inner city traffic – fully electric buses represent the best choice, assuming the electricity used is renewable. In other areas, such as suburban and regional traffic, which often accounts for a large part of fuel usage and emissions, the biggest reductions may instead be reached with conventional or hybrid electric buses running on renewable fuels.
Scania´s complete powertrain portfolio enables authorities and operators to utilise the technology most suitable for local conditions.
ENERGY-EFFICIENCY THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
To achieve the most energy-efficient operations, it is necessary to consider the impact of both product technology and in-use factors. For electric buses, a low energy consumption can have a significant impact on the operational range, while it for combustion driven buses results in lower fuel consumption and emissions.
Scania addresses the energy consumption issue from all angles. Through high-quality buses specified for the operation, we ensure low energy consumption without compromising on factors such as performance and passenger capacity. And with our driver support and high-quality maintenance services, the vehicles can also be used in an optimal way, further minimising energy consumption.
SAFE AND APPEALING BUSES
Safety is of utmost importance in urban environments, in which the conditions are often stressful for bus drivers. In order to both prevent accidents and minimise potential damage, Scania buses have built-in state-of-the-art safety systems and features such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) that increase driver awareness or even help control the vehicle and reinforced body and chassis construction. These play a crucial role in limiting risks and protecting drivers, passengers, pedestrians, cyclists, and other road users.
By offering pleasant journeys with low noise levels and high passenger comfort as well as a contemporary design, the vehicle also plays an important role in attracting people to use the public transport system.
Improving operating economy
Operators in urban environments know the importance of keeping costs to a minimum. At Scania, customer profitability constitutes a foundation for the products and services we develop - always with the human perspective in mind.
Energy efficiency that lowers cost
A vehicle’s energy consumption depends on several factors. Powertrain performance is of course crucial, as is vehicle specification and product usage. Compared to its predecessor, the new generation Scania buses can reduce consumption and emissions up to 21% - without compromising on performance. Moreover, our driver support services typically contribute to savings of 10%, while our fleet management services enable analysis for further savings.
Ensuring availability
High vehicle utilisation is key to achieving cost-efficient operations. Our buses are built on proven technology and components, resulting in chassis and powertrains that are dependable, durable, and robust while still offering excellent drivability. They are designed to ensure protection of sensitive and expensive components, potentially minimising costly and time-consuming repairs. And our worldwide service network provides advanced repair and maintenance services, supported by outstanding spare parts availability.
