Micro Bird G5 Electric

Electric buses are rapidly gaining favor because they offer an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuel-powered vehicles. Gregory Poole Bus Sales can provide the new Micro Bird G5 Electric bus from Blue Bird to school districts and other organizations in North and South Carolina. This bus delivers the ideal combination of reliability, safe operation and substantial energy savings. 

About the Micro Bird G5 Electric

The G5 Electric bus offers a clean powertrain that reduces emissions, increases the vehicle’s driving range and reduces energy costs. It includes an exclusive Micro Bird two-speed transmission that maximizes torque at lower speeds and enhances battery autonomy. 

The bus can travel over 100 miles on a single charge of the 88 kWh battery, providing ample range for picking up and dropping off students during the school day. The battery can fully recharge in seven hours or less. 

The bus weighs 14,500 pounds and can comfortably and safely transport up to 30 passengers. It also includes a regenerative brake feature that optimizes the battery’s performance on urban routes with numerous stops. A reinforced buffer zone provides additional passenger protection during collisions. 

This technologically advanced electric bus also contains a cutting-edge telematics dashboard that optimizes fleet management and operating efficiency. 

What Are the Benefits of the G5 Electric Bus?

Transitioning to the Micro Bird G5 Electric or adding a few of these buses to your fleet offers several benefits:

• Durability: The galvanized steel roof components, rugged side impact barriers and aluminum side panels contribute to an extended bus life span, lengthening the period between vehicle replacements.
• Lower operating and maintenance costs: The double-action, energy-absorbing body mounting blocks minimize vibrations and prevent the need for frequent bolt tightening. The wire housing enables access without removing the ceiling panels, saving valuable time. 
• Enhanced passenger comfort and safety: A wider center aisle increases comfort and creates more interior space for passengers. A glass door and unblocked window offer additional visibility for the driver.
• Better protection from the elements: A completely sealed floor, water-resistant windows, superior insulation and polymer side wheel trim keep moisture, dust, dirt and noise outside the vehicle.
