Volvo says that the engine and driveline used in the 9700 have “several fuel-saving technologies” to reduce consumption by “up to 9%,” in addition to the aerodynamic qualities of a coach that “radiates attitude, elegance and safety.”
Meanwhile, the BZL battery-electric is a demonstrator vehicle with Volvo’s own driveline. The manufacturer says that the BZL range – which also includes a double-decker – comes with “flexible charging options to ensure seamless operation” and that through a partnership approach, it can work with customers on the transition to zero-emission.
Euro Bus Expo will be held between the 1st and 3rd November 2022 at the NEC Birmingham. To register for a free trade pass to attend, visit eurobusxpo.com.
