Posted by gOld_12th on Sat Jul 30 01:14:15 2016 "The original Hybrid (hype~shit) plan was to repower hybrid buses with diesel engines, however, after an evaluation of the full cost of the conversions, it was determined that these funds would be better utilized to support the following Hybrid bus programs: provision for an extended warranty on PCS components with the vendor; replacement of traction motors and generators based on three-year average failure rates; replacement of hybrid batteries based on the latest schedule with the vendor; replacement of engines in their midlife; and replacement of injectors in years two and four after engine replacements." #3563 - remains the oddball bus. |
