Un nou venit pe piata e-busurilor, MAZ cu modelul 303E10. al doilea e-bus cu motorizare ZF CeTrax si cu autonomie de 300 km.

MAZ adds an electric bus to its portfolio. The Belarusian manufacturer (complete name: Minsk Automobile Plant) unveiled a few days ago the MAZ 303E10, which also stands out for being the second vehicle equipped with the brand new electric central motor CeTrax by ZF (the first is the Solaris Urbino 15 LE Electric). Deliveries should start in 2021.

MAZ unveils an electric bus

MAZ electric bus (12.43m lenghts) is built on a low-floor platform and features, according to the press release by MAZ a «412 Ah» battery. That figures, coupled with an hypothetic voltage of 660 V (common to several electric bus batteries, for instance Solaris and Akasol ones), gives a value of some 270 kWh. The range stated by the manufacturer is 300 km. The manufacturer points out that, in developing the electric bus layout, is has been possible to increase the glazed surface of one third compared to a conventional drive bus.

ZF CeTrax for MAZ 303E10 electric bus

The electric bus MAZ 303E10, which was developed within the third-generation of the MAZ 303 bus range, adopts the ZF CeTrax, which can deliver up to 300 kW. Batteries can be charged both by alternating current or with plug-in CCS2 connection (for four hours), with connector placed in the rear compartment. In the vehicle there is technically room for more than 70 passengers (30 of them seated).

All rows of seats 0n MAZ electric bus are equipped with USB ports. Sliding ramp for wheelchair couldn’t be missing. Heating, MAZ points out, is entirely electrically-powered.

As mentioned on Electrive (based on a local source), Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko has ordered MAZ to produce ten electric buses for use in the country.

Nu arata rău deloc! Ar putea depune oferta la licitația de 100 de e-busuri de la București?

Trecand peste faptul ca design-ul este copiat dupa Solaris, absolut nici un oras din Romania nu a avut experiente pozitive cu vehiculele MAZ, din 2004 si pana in prezent. Deci...

Depinde si de mentenanta. Aud ca la Pitesti au fost multumiti de ele.

E autobuz electric. De ce mai avem sifonier in spate?

Baterii + Motor ZF CeTrax.

Nu e nevoie de dulap full height pentru componentele respective. Dulapul este necesar pentru volumul ocupat de un motor diesel + sistemle auxiliare antrenate de el.

Carcoteala mea este ca din diverse considerente (mai ieftin, scos produsul mai rapid pe piata) au refolosit caroseria autobuzului diesel, desi echipamentele de tractiune ar fi putut fi dosite prin alte cotloane (inclusiv acoperis) si ar fi permis o impartire a interiorului mai prietenoasa cu publicul calator.

Componentele unui autobuz electric pot rezolva din compromisurile aduse de podeaua low-floor (esafodaje, trepte, dulapuri)
