Euro Bus Expo '11.2022

A zero-emission version of the New Routemaster double-decker bus. Its hybrid drivetrain was completely replaced with Equipmake's cutting-edge Zero Emission Drivetrain (ZED), which uses 95% British-built component content.

The repowered New Routemaster, developed by Equipmake at its base in Snetterton, Norfolk, features a 400kWh battery enabling an expected in-service range of 150 miles – more than enough for a day's running.

Under the skin, the New Routemaster also features Equipmake’s HTM 3500 electric motor. Seamlessly integrated into the prop shaft without the need for a separate transmission, the motor is precisely engineered to meet the demanding requirements of a fully-laden double-decker bus by producing 3,500Nm torque at a motor speed of just 1,000rpm and delivering 400kW maximum power.
