Comment on Electric school buses are a breath of fresh air for children | Nearly $1B in federal funding could help clean up the unequal health impacts of diesel pollution.
Yep I bet they’ll keep a handful of diesel trucks for specific occasions and emergencies.
Hopefully in a few years they’ll have some range extender carts the bus could pull behind it.
Given the size of the bus you could fit a huge ass battery in there.
Yeah, but you don’t always need such a large battery, and that takes way from the storage area, which is important for long trips.
Maybe an aux battery that can be slid in the frame?
