On October 4, 2025, the renowned Busworld Europe event kicked off in Brussels, Belgium, attracting industry leaders, media, and customers from over 20 countries. Among the highlights was the unveiling of the new series V of electric buses by Chinese manufacturer HIGER. This launch underscores HIGER's commitment to innovation and electrification in public transport.
HIGER's Executive Vice President, Leo Zheng, presented the core values and key features of the new series V, emphasizing the advantages that the intelligent cabin design brings to bus operators. The innovations not only enhance comfort for drivers and passengers alike, but they also fulfill crucial demands for the evolving transport landscape. The series V encapsulates three pivotal principles: value, vector, and vision, marking HIGER's advanced response to market needs.
The series V has been in development for three years, during which HIGER's expert team engaged in extensive on-ground research in frontline markets. This involved using advanced engineering practices and a comprehensive Integrated Product Development (IPD) process, which facilitated the incorporation of innovative 3D modular design and intelligent domain control technology. The new series features an exceptional range of lengths, from 8 to 14 meters, catering to a diverse array of operational requirements including passenger buses, touring coaches, school buses, intercity buses, and urban transport systems.
This launch marks a continuation of HIGER's advocacy for electric buses at Busworld Europe, following previous successful introductions of electric bus models over the past four years. From their 2017 launch of supercapacitor-equipped buses to the premium electric FENCER f1 introduced in 2023, HIGER has consistently showcased China's capabilities in R&D and manufacturing on the global stage. Such milestones emphasize not only China's strength in the industry but also its significant role in promoting innovation and the premiumization of new energy buses worldwide.
The trajectory of bus development is set to transcend the vehicles themselves, extending into advancements in R&D systems, collaborative ecosystems, and the setting of industry standards. With the electric series V now leading the charge, HIGER is poised to reshape the global bus market and drive the evolution of Chinese intelligent manufacturing.
In concluding comments, Leo Zheng reiterated HIGER's vision for the future of transport, stating, "As we embrace electrification, we are committed to providing solutions that not only meet contemporary transport challenges but also pave the way for sustainable mobility solutions worldwide."
