The trial operation of KAMAZ electric bus with night charging has been completed in Saint Petersburg.

KAMAZ-6282 ONC electric bus was placed at the disposal of the St. Petersburg State Unitary Enterprise "Passagiravtotrans" at the end of February. During the month, the carrier tested the novelty on urban routes. During this time, the electric bus traveled a total of 2.5 thousand km and transported over 10.6 thousand people. The consumption calculated by St. Petersburg State Unitary Enterprise "Passagiravtotrans" was 2.18 kW/km. The bus received positive feedback from the operating organization.

KAMAZ-6282 ONC electric bus with night charging retains all the features of the "classic" KAMAZ-6282 model, but can be charged after hours. This type of electric buses has an increased capacity of traction batteries, which implies a large amount of mileage on a single charge. Energy is stored in lithium-nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) rechargeable batteries with an energy capacity of 499 kWh. The electric synchronous motor has permanent magnets as part of an electric axle with a power of 2x180 kW. Passenger capacity is up to 85 people, seating capacity is 35 people.
