MTA reveals new electric buses, charging stations

- Some new buses are charging ahead on the streets of New York. New York City Transit said the buses will be in areas with poor air quality.
Diesel-powered buses currently run on most of the 300 routes. Sixty new electric buses are ready to roll from the Maspeth depot.
Ok, but there are no more diesel buses and there haven't been for about 10 years now. They are all hybrids or natural gas currently.
Unless the bus says hybrid or CNG, it's still a diesel, just clean air diesel. There are still over 3000 diesel buses in the fleet.
hey boatface, lick an eel lately?
That was the case for most of the 2000s when the MTA purchased nothing but new Hybrid and CNG buses (except for the OTR coaches, which used clean diesel), but starting in early 2010s, they starting to revert back to buying new diesel buses (due to issues with the Hybrid tech at the time) and haven''t brought new hybrids again until just a few years ago.
Newer clean diesel buses do not have an impact on air quality. The clean diesel technology ( which has been around since 2010 ) is already on the current diesel fleet ( which includes the diesel electric hybrids ) emits no smoke at all.
Electric buses run on lithium ion batteries.....ARE CITY BUSES UL CERTIFIED as purposed by the state for lithium ion battery safety requirements for everyone who uses electric vehicles? Lithium batteries explode no matter what type of vehicle you use.
Awesome! Less exhaust is always a good thing
They have these just feet away from the MARCY AVE station on the J,M,Z line
They switched over here in Prague to electric without issues. We have mostly teams, but in the outer areas of the city and when there’s bad weather such that trams have trouble stopping busses are used.
Can it handle rain .. heavy flood … or winter cold
Hope it never 🔥combusts
Nope
These buses were supposed to be delivered during the Spring but it got delayed for some reason.
BTW, Seattle, 399 Gilligs :D
Ok but let's try to make the electricity from majority renewable energy
RIGHT HERE I LOVE ♥♥♥ THE BRAND NEW N.Y.C. M.T.A. MASS TRANSIT 🚇🚇 DISTRICT HYBRID CLEAN - ENERGY BUSES 🚌 🚌.
Oh its definitely going to effect the air quality! Especially when they burst into flames and produce noxious smoke!!!
I guess the MTA hasn't seen just how poorly electric busses have worked elsewhere.
On the M86 why are the electric buses always the spare? Buses
Electric revolution has begun
This does not work. When these busses break down, they are all but abandoned. The parts are in low supply and the maintenance is very costly.
RIGHT HERE THEY NEED TO PUT N.Y.P.D. POLICE TRANSIT 🚇🚇 DISTRICT COPS 👮♀️ 👮♂️ 🚔 DOWNSTAIRS INSIDE NEAR THE SUBWAY TRAIN 🚇🚇 STATION PLATFORMS NOT AT THE TURNSTYLES WHERE YOU SCAN & $$$ PAY 2.90 CENTS / SOON TO BE 3.00 DOLLARS IN CASH 💸💸💸💰 WITH YOUR OMNY SCANNER CARD PASS.
NYC still uses diesel 😳...I thought they were CNG like many major cities....but with electric...god forbid a battery caught fire on the road ....just imagine how long the fire will burn
BATTERY FIRES have happened in the past to nyc electric buses
it can still happen.
1. So they have money for busses but cant fix the train stations amd they still bitch about people not paying fairs
2. What about the bronx, they also have long commutes
They are fixing stations and the BX will get them when more are delivered
how much can i get from those copper cables
What’s the miles per charge?
They'll be in the shop more than they're on the road they will not be able to handle the pounding of the city streets
how long will it take to a full charge? how many hours can a full chanrge run with a/c or heat on all day?
These are Alabama builds, like David Gunn's worst nightmare!
i think what MTA need is to have some of their bus drivers go under training again… such aggressive drivers on the road.
Wasting money on nonsense how about on crime 😂😂 government is a joke
👏👏👏👏👏❤️
I don't remember the MTA ever fighting crime it's MTA not NYPD
@@TheLordAI Same taxpayer money though.
hell yeahhhh NEWFLYER XE40’s
No talk of range or poor performance in cold weather, how about air conditioning in the summer draining the battery. Burning buses in London.
Small warehouse into a skyscraper, so lets burn more clean coal.
This will be such a failure.
we already have 2 40-foot and around 15 60-Foot Eclectic Buses running in Manhattan, so far, they've only broken down once.
Let's see them in 5 years @@lgaalt6380
Electric buses dont do good in cold weather unless if they have some kind of a diesel heater installed to keep batteries warm. Having the passenger heater on drains most of the energy than having the A/C on. Also heavy passenger loads and
put wifi back on those buses
they removed it due to low usage
@@med7870 probably no one knew how to do it but bring them back
Are you could just make more bus lanes and give people a better chose other driving to take more cars off the road but you know.
RIGHT HERE THEY NEED TO PUT N.Y.P.D. POLICE TRANSIT 🚇🚇 DISTRICT COPS 👮♀️ 👮♂️ 🚔 INSIDE THE SUBWAY TRAIN 🚇🚇 STATION CAB 🚇 CARS NOT AT THE TURNSTYLES WHERE YOU SCAN & $$$ PAY 2.90 CENTS / SOON TO BE 3.00 DOLLARS IN CASH 💸💸💸💰 WITH YOUR OMNY SCANNER CARD PASS.
RIGHT HERE I REPEAT I REPEAT I REPEAT WHEN YOU RIDE A N.Y.C. M.T.A. MASS TRANSIT BUS 🚌 🚌 & THE TRANSIT BUS 🚌 🚌 SAYS ON TOP SUBWAY SHUTTLE THAT MEANS THE BUS 🚌 🚌 IS # FREE FREE FREE NO $$$ COST OF CHARGE & ALSO NO $$$ COST OF CASH 💸💸💸💰 PAYMENT 😊😊😊🚌.
lol impossible all of them will be 2040
We don’t want this crap. Make the MTA a public company so it can be run right
Leave NYC then
Lol
Byd rule!!!!!
Yes of course the Bronx is last
The bx don’t need nothing they already started messing up the hybrids they were given
buses out of service battery is dead 😁😁
The batteries can last 2 days
they try and sell it so hard....
Bronx doesn’t exist I guess
Diesel buses is way better electric buses
