[โ] Gamechanger@slrpnk.net 3 points 5 days ago (1 child) Good news! But after reading the article, what does it mean, 61% of the city busses, how much in the broader market? I am left with more questions than answers... permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] huppakee@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (1 child) What broader market? Touring cars? Work vans? 61% of the city busses are electric, the rest is not. What questions are you left with? It's quite an extensive article on such a narrow topic. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] Gamechanger@slrpnk.net 5 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) Yeah, you could read it like that but the numbers don't ad up. With broader market I mean the whole bus market, not just city. Long range electric busses do exist and get sold.
