There are 931 kilometers (at least according to Google Maps!) separating Switzerland’s Bellach from Germany’s capital, Berlin. 931 kilometers that Hess has decided to travel entirely on board its new electric bus.

From July 12-13, the so-called Capital of Europe will host Elekbu, the 13th VDV electric bus conference. So what better occasion than the Berlin event for a trip aboard an electric e-bus?

HESS’s 12-meter-long lightTram 12 Plug will travel to the German capital by its own means, making stops in Munich, Nuremberg and Leipzig.
