CRRC EV's All-Electric Buses Set New Standards at Busworld 2025
CRRC EV's Groundbreaking Introduction at Busworld 2025
On October 6, 2025, during the Busworld Europe congress in Brussels, CRRC Electric Vehicle Co., Ltd. (CRRC EV), a subsidiary of CRRC Corporation Ltd., showcased its innovative approach to urban transport with the debut of two fully electric buses. This event marks a significant step towards redefining urban mobility, supported by their latest digital-intelligent low-carbon urban transit system.
Innovative Bus Models
The standout products introduced were the premium fully electric coach EU12C and the double-decker transit bus ED12. The EU12C is crafted for high-end travel with an impressive 800V architecture that delivers 480 kW of peak power and a torque of 5,100 Nm. This allows the bus to effortlessly conquer slopes exceeding 30%. Its sleek, aerodynamically-designed chassis ensures a range of up to 550 km on a single charge, coupled with ultra-fast charging capabilities that minimize downtime.
In contrast, the ED12 double-decker bus is engineered to accommodate up to 126 passengers while providing a city range of 560 km per charge under operational conditions. Notably, its structure utilizes a lightweight 6000-series aluminum originally designed for high-speed rail applications, promising a lifespan of 20 years. The bus is also equipped with a 10-layer safety architecture for its battery, ensuring passenger safety.
Advanced Urban Transit Solutions
Beyond the physical buses, CRRC EV presented a comprehensive solution aimed at enhancing public transport dynamics. This includes the Smart Cloud Brain, a centralized platform that integrates big data, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things for improved real-time traffic management and decision-making processes.
Urban Mobility as a Service (MaaS) prioritizes public transport with AI-driven planning, on-demand transit, and smart maintenance strategies. This dual-layer network utilizes existing metro and intelligent rail infrastructure, complemented by buses for last-mile connectivity. A pilot initiative, the
