What can you expect rom aMercedes-Benz? MoreThere are buses. And then there are Mercedes-Benz buses. In todays ercely competitive market,

its the star that makes all the diference, giving you that decisive lead and the reassuring eeling o

In the vanguard o progress. No oher manuacurer in he word has demonsraed such commimen o he bus secor

or assumed as much responsibiiy or i as Mercedes-Benz. No jus because i was Car Benz who bui he words rs

make buses ever more environmenay compaibe. Miesones such as he words rs hybrid-drive bus in 1969 or he

underined by iniiaives such as he NElEEt projec, in which 36 ue-ce-drive Ciaro buses covered some 2 miion

kiomeres in reguar ine service around he word (and carried more han 7 mi ion passengers). And you, oo, bene

Trend-setting concept: running on hydrogen, the uel cell generates electricity which is stored in the battery system. This, in turn, supplies power to the traction motors and the other vehicle components. During braking or no-load

operation, the traction motors recuperate energy which is also ed into the battery system. An intermediate electrical circuit controls the power fows between the various consumers
