This winter the Cool Bus fleet includes 14 vehicles – 3 Tesla Model X, 5 Mercedes EQV electric minibuses and 6 volkswagen caravelles
For 12 years the VW Caravelle was the Cool Bus standard. In 2016 we invested in our first electric vehicle – a Tesla Model X – and soon after, decided the time had come to move away permanently from diesel and petrol vehicles. Since that time we have been steadily replacing our Caravelles, firstly with Tesla’s and now, the Mercedes EQV – the best electric minibus currently available on the market.
