Daimler Truck has delivered 1,000 Saf-T-Liner C2 Jouley battery-electric school buses in the North American market. The Saf-T-Liner C2 Jouley, the electric school bus model in the Thomas Built Buses product portfolio, was unveiled in 2017.
The 1,000th Jouley Bus, part of a larger order, goes to the Meriwether County School System (MCSS) in Georgia. The Jouley buses are the first electric buses in MCSS’ operations and will serve as replacements for some of the district’s current fleet of 46 diesel school buses, benefiting the 2,400 Pre-K through 12th-grade students enrolled in the district.
Daimler Truck is fully committed to the Paris Climate Agreement by reaching the 2039 goal to offer only new vehicles in the company’s core markets (EU30, USA, Japan) that are carbon-neutral in driving operation.
