Presenting: the eCitaro G, an all-electric articulated bus for heavily frequented routes. It's the logical continuation of the Mercedes-Benz eMobility concept. With its modern, spacious interior, it can accommodate a practically appropriate number of up to 146 (series with 8 HVBB) passengers. On a per passenger basis, the eCitaro G boasts impressively low acquisition and maintenance costs.

This often makes it the most economical solution for routes with high passenger volumes. In combination with the eCitaro Solobus, it can ideally cover the diverse transport requirements of future-oriented transport companies. The eCitaro G impresses with the traditional performance of the Citaro G while at the same time boasting the outstanding technology and performance of the electrified Solo bus.

It also benefits from the excellent quality of a wide range of tried-and-tested components. For example, its body is based on the combustion-driven Citaro G, while its roof construction is inspired by the Citaro G NGT with its integrated heavy-duty rails.

The eCitaro G is an articulated bus that is also modern in its interior that meets all the requirements for contemporary passenger transport in urban areas. In the eCitaro G, the continuous low-floor design from the first to the last row of seats guarantees a high level of comfort and fast passenger flow. The 18.13 metre long and 3.40 metre high articulated bus is available with either three or four doors.

Both the door positions and the layout of the passenger area are identical to the Citaro G with its combustion engine. The turning circle, track circle, and turning circle widths are also identical to that of the Citaro G, enabling the eCitaro G to operate the same way in traffic.

The eCitaro G can be manoeuvred safely even in narrow streets. The front and rear sections are connected to Mercedes-Benz’s unique jack-knife control system (ATC) by the tried-and-tested low-floor articulation. This innovative technology guarantees a high level of stability and impressive manoeuvrability. Manoeuvring is extremely convenient even in reverse gear thanks to the independent wheel suspension on the front axle. This makes the eCitaro G particularly manoeuvrable and also increases driving comfort. The eCitaro G's drive technology is precisely matched to its special vehicle concept. For example, the eCitaro G is designed as standard as an articulated pusher bus with its driven axle in the rear section. What's more, we tailor it precisely to the transport company's individual requirements. If, for example, the requirements for power and traction are particularly high, perhaps because of the topography or demanding conditions in winter operation, a version with two driven axles is also available. The ZF AVE 130 electric axle is then used not only as a rear axle, but also as a centre axle. This special configuration guarantees superior performance and excellent vehicle traction – even when the eCitaro G is on the road in difficult conditions. And there's another advantage that csn further increase profitability: the second drive axle increases the eCitaro G's recuperation capacity and decreases its tyre wear.
