The initiative Zero Emission Bus Rapid-Deployment Accelerator (ZEBRA) aims to deploy zero emission buses in major Latin American cities with Volvo Buses.
The new partnership is part of Volvo Buses’ commitment to form industry collaborations that can drive forward the transition to zero emission public transport.
Volvo Buses is the first European bus manufacturer to become a committed partner of ZEBRA, a voluntary commitment that has been made in partnership with ZEBRA and its co-founders, the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) and the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, as well as several other industry partners.
The agreement will require Volvo Buses to implement a number of activities, including the provision of electric buses for purchase in Mexico City and Santiago within 18 months and demonstrating a zero-emission bus product in any one of the selected cities within 12 months.
