The New Flyer Xcelsior CHARGE FC™ demo bus continued its tour of the Southwest with recent stops in Albuquerque, New Mexico and El Paso, Texas. Regional Sales Manager Rex Colorado, along with VIC team members Blake Carroll and Waco Rutledge, showed off the unique features and innovative technology that make up our state-of-the-art hydrogen fuel cell-electric bus.
At ABQ Ride in Albuquerque, attendees were treated to a highway ride in the Xcelsior CHARGE FC bus – showing off its powerful acceleration and quiet operation – followed by in-depth discussions about the bus with New Flyer’s onsite team.
The tour was rounded out with a stop at Sun Metro in El Paso, Texas where more than 30 members of the agency joined for a demo ride on the property – taking advantage of New Flyer’s industry-leading passenger carrying capacity. The day finished with an opportunity for qualified Sun Metro operators to test the bus for themselves, getting to experience the real-world results of the high-performing technologies.
