This bus is a Renault that had been completely rebuild by Car Ind http://www.car-ind.com/

This is the actually an ampere meter. The 2A (=2 Amps) is the “idle” current like light and ventilation. When the compressor was running it was 5Amps.

The driver was not very familiarly with the bus because it was his second day in the new bus, so he was driving carefully. The max Amps for accelerating was 150 and max amps when regenerating was – 51 Amps.

 The 89% was when the tour started and it ended at 85% after a 55 min slow round trip in the city.

It is fantastic to travel in a bus completely silently apart from the creaking suspension.

The rear suspension is fare to hard; apart from that it is wonder full! Well done Car Ind.

This video shows acceleration, sorry it is a bit bumpy:
