Wrightbus Launches In Australia With Battery And Hydrogen Buses On Show
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Fuel Cell Works.
These two bullet points, act as sub-headings.
- Wrightbus has officially launched its Australian expansion, introducing a range of battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell buses backed by local sales, service and long-term support
- The move strengthens the company’s international growth strategy as Australia increases investment in zero-emission public transport and heavy-duty decarbonization
This first paragraph adds more details.
Wrightbus has officially entered the Australian market, marking a significant milestone in the Northern Ireland manufacturer’s international growth strategy. The company unveiled its expansion during the Australasia Bus & Coach Expo in Sydney, where it presented its battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell bus portfolio to operators, government agencies and transport stakeholders. The launch will be led locally by a dedicated Australian team and is supported by a long-term commitment to aftersales service, technical support and partnerships with Australian industry.
I believe that this is the start of something big.
- Wrightbus know how to sell large numbers of buses to conurbations like London, Manchester and Leeds.
- An operator can decarbonise their network in a way that suits them.
- In the Ultroliner, Wrightbus have a bus that can be introduced as a diesel and then converted to hydrogen or electric, when the operator has sorted the fuel.
- Australia must surely be a big market for Wrightbus’s hydrogen-powered coach, with a 1,000 km range on one fill-up.
- It should be born in mind, that the average Wrightbus zero-carbon bus, makes the competition from China look like junks.
Will Wrightbus manufacture the buses and coaches in Ballymena, Malaysia or Australia?
