2010 Tata Commercial Vehicle

Hybrid low-floor Tata Starbus with electric traction: The new hybrid Starbus, a concept, is aresult of Tata Motors advances in alternate fuel technologies to reduce greenhouse gasemissions and consumption of conventional fuels. Meant for intra-city transportation, it is

powered with a series hybrid engine comprising an internal combustion CNG engine and threelithium ion batteries mounted on the roof. The CNG engine charges the lithium ion batteriesthrough a generator, and the batteries in turn power the driveline. The regenerative brakingsystem also helps in charging the batteries. The electric traction system (induction motors withsummation gear box) provides smooth acceleration & the driveability of a vehicle withautomatic transmission. The new hybrid Starbus delivers over 25-30% improvement in fueleconomy.

The low-floor (floor height: 400 mm) air-conditioned bus can seat 35 passengers, and can alsoaccommodate wheel chairs. Pneumatically operated in-swing and out-swing flat doors andkneeling facility allow easy entry and exit, reducing halt time and trip lengths. Full air suspensionand telescopic double-acting shock absorbers provide excellent ride quality, while an energy-efficient HVAC system with air curtains at the doors enhances comfort. With high startingacceleration, and a maximum speed of 70 km, the hybrid Starbus is an innovative solution forfast and comfortable intra-city passenger movement in an environment-friendly manner.
