Vantage Power have designed and are in the process of prototyping the B320 System - an innovative hybrid-electric powertrain which will replace the existing engine and gearbox currently found in conventional buses. Using state of the art technology, from a military-grade battery pack thermal management system to electric motors and power electronics tested over millions of kilometres, the B320 System is designed to be robust and reliable while at the same time reducing fuel consumption and emissions by over 40%. As well as being Euro 5 compliant, a B320-powered double-decker bus will save operators about £20,000 per year worth of fuel. Vantage Power is partnered with Ensign Bus Company - the UK’s largest used bus dealer. Their 40 years of industry expertise and sterling reputation is helping Vantage Power bring the concept of retrofitting buses with the B320 System to a global clientele.
