Axess FC

AXESS-FC

Model Specs
MEETING REAL WORLD NEEDS WITH ZERO EMISSIONS

It's the hybrid bus version of the Axess and where public transportation should be going. industry should be going. Fueled by hydrogen, it never needs gas and the only emission coming from the tailpipe is water. It's also the only hydrogen bus in the industry that's federally certified for 3-point seat belts. It features a heavy-duty low floor that can be adapted for any application: airport shuttle, college transit, you name it. And like its brother, the Axess, the Axess-FC offers optional ADA-compliant wheelchair ramps. It's also completed Altoona testing and passed numerous side impact and roof crush tests to insure passenger safety.
