There is a lot of movement in the European intercity electric bus segment. Battery-powered traction finds its natural habitat in urban mission profiles, and on the streets of our cities, e-buses are increasing in number.

But electric is also making inroads in Class II, with several Oems developing models for intercity mission professions (see the just-launched Mercedes eIntouro and Iveco Crossway Elec). Among them is Otokar, which is offering the e-Territo Normal Floor (i.e., high-floor) to the market, a model that can already be ordered and is ready to duke it out with the competition.

Interesting how the vehicle was conceived, designed and built for future fuel cell application.

The high-floor e-Territo is in production, available for orders and is offered in two different length configurations: 12,200 millimeters and 13,000 millimeters; in the first version the passenger capacity is 57 people, in the second it goes up to 63.

The Lfp battery packs, which can be modulated, have a capacity of 450 kWh, for a claimed range of about 500 kilometers. The engine is by Voith Veds, with 410 Kw of power and 3100 Nm of torque.
