King Long XMQ
6180G, measuring 18-meters in length, boasts unparalleled passenger loading
capacity. Thus, it has been winning the hearts of many bus operators and passengers.
Its brand new
version has further accentuated its technological element, giving top priority
to passengers and drivers. In its architectural design, safety standards and
operation efficiency, the bus has gone through a number of radical changes to
better suit passengers’ travel needs. At Beijing 2016 Bus & Truck Expo
which was held in May, the vehicle won the Best City Bus of the Year. So far,
XMQ 6180G has made its way to Xiamen, Yantai, and Changzhou. Moreover, it also
went abroad, calling for more citizens adopting a greener lifestyle.
As early as 2005,
King Long started its research and development work on vehicles used for BRT.
Xiamen, home to the bus maker’s headquarter, now boasts over 100 King Long
buses on its BRT. These vehicles have brought tremendous travel convenience for
the local people. In December, 2012, 300 units 18-meter King Long BRT vehicles
were successfully delivered to Tehran, capital of Iran for operation. With the
assistance from King Long, Tehran set up its own BRT system, which has been
gaining increasing popularity among the local citizens.
Currently,
developing green and convenient public transportation is the top priority for
many cities in China. Against such a backdrop , buses with large passenger loading
capacity are an ideal choice for urban public transportation.
BRT, also known as
bus rapid transit, is becoming increasingly popular in many big cities across
the globe. Thanks to its high efficiency, low energy consumption and large
passenger loading capacity, it has also become many citizens’ first choice
while adopting a low-carbon lifestyle.
