Mercedes-Benz eCitaro FUEL CELL 

Thanks for this beautiful video. ❤

Very interesting and informative. This idea shows promise but it too will have to prove itself to earn people’s confidence.

Hi 👋 Thankyou for this Demo on the Fuel Cell Mercedes Bends 60'Bus .Having 4wheel drive setup is a good safety Feature in Snowy roads more controlled operating..The gate at the drivers area is a sad sign of our times 😢 keeping the Drivers safe from been assaulted Enjoyed the Video 📹 as always 👍

I think there should be dual/hybrid (standard and camera) mirrors on buses so if you want to use one or the other, you can.

Nice video, nice bus. I actually like those 1.5 seats. I can sit there alone and I have a wide seat. I think I only had one person that wanted to sit beside me on one of those, and that was a drunk girl if my memory serves me right. I do agree that those are probably a waste of space. they should atleast be reserved for people with disabilities or something.

I’m just curious about how long it takes you to do such awesome editing.

Nice review overall. At 9:25 you can clearly hear that also the ZF AVE 130 suffers badly from high pitch noise coming from the E-motors. So it is not only the Cetrax in the VDL Citea NG. Hopelfully they will find a insulation solution for that.

10:15 Good thing this type of seats is optional, I never liked it either. As far as I know it's mainly a Germany thing to have more walking/standing space, or as some people say - for a parent and a small child.

Think there's the tech that needs to go somewhere in the box at the rear.

Fuel cell propulsion is the future until ultra dense battery breakthrough.

hei du har rett, den boksen bak på den Mercedes Benz Citaro E må fjernes, flere seter og de forferdelige setene kan også endres til vanlige seter og nevnte speil, gjerne klassiske speil

4x6, not 4x4😊

Hydrogen is defenitely the future for the heavy trafic. Batteries are not smart in weight vice not loading vice. It has to be fuel Cells.

Honestly I highly doubt the prospect for hydrogen vehicles, especially for buses. The mere economics of it are extremely bad. With an electric bus, you get little to no energy lost from the energy source to the wheels of the bus. It is extremely efficient. But with hydrogen vehicles you first need to use electrolysis to generate the hydrogen, then store it under extremely high pressure, and then pass it through a fuel cell, all of which causes energy losses. With a hydrogen vehicle, of the energy you put in, you usually only get 30% of that energy out of it. That means the fuel costs for hydrogen vehicles are at least 3 times higher than for a battery electric vehicle, and thats just not good. Especially not for public transit agencies, many of which are tight on money, that means it would cost again, at least 3 times as much to run a route with hydrogen buses as it would with battery ones. Plus higher maintenance costs due to the added complexities of the hydrogen tanks and the fuel cells themselves. No range benefits or fast refuelling can fix such poor operating economics. Not to mention the dedicated charging infrastructure which is also much more expensive than that for electric buses. Like Hydrogen buses might have had a shot at being viable if they were say 130% the price to operate of a battery bus, but not 300+%. And these inefficiencies come from the very factors of how hydrogen as a matter behaves and the generation of said fuels. I am extremely doubtful that technological advances or new vehicles could fix these problems, so I think its frankly the best to stick with purely electric buses for now and work on improving the batteries in them. Something which at least seems more viable.

I think this technology is more promising than electric vehicles
