Proven electric axle, new modular battery concept

The drive system of the new all-electric Citaro is based on the tried and tested ZF AVE 130 electric portal axle with electric motors at the wheel hubs, as previously deployed in other variants of the Citaro. Their peak output of the motors is 2 x 125 kW, while torque is 2 x 485 Nm. It is an inherent feature of such motors that this is fully available right from the start, so ensuring appropriate dynamic performance even with a full complement of passengers.



Lithium-ion batteries with a total capacity of up to about 243 kWh are responsible for providing the power. These are modular in design: the batteries are split between up to ten modules, each supplying around 25 kWh. As well as two battery modules on the roof, the standard equipment includes four battery modules in the rear of the bus. In the Citaro these are located on the left-hand side in the direction of travel, in the place of the current drive system combination of combustion engine and transmission. Depending upon customer requirements, a further two or four battery modules may be mounted on the roof of the Citaro.
