Daimler Buses Unveils Citaro Hybrid, Tech Available on All Models

...

Daimler Buses took the wraps off the new Citaro hybrid urban bus at Busworld Rueop. The hybrid powertrain is optionally available for a large number of model variants of the best-selling urban bus, including the natural-gas-powered Citaro NGT.

Together with the new electrohydraulic steering, the Citaro hybrid further reduces the fuel consumption of the Citaro by up to 8.5%. The hybrid drive takes up little space; the outer contours of the bus, like the passenger compartment, remain unchanged; the extra weight is low.
