About the event
City buses and many more - Targi Kielce has again become the public transport capital!
Almost 6,000 square meters of space was used by112 exhibitors who presented their novelties; Kielce saw many vehicles that had not yet been presented to the public and among them city buses and coaches. There were six spectacular premieres this year. First, the 10-meter ARP e-Vehicles Pilea bus premiered in the Kielce exhibition and congress centre. This vehicle features innovation - the battery is installed in the chassis, just as it is in TESLI cars. Second, on its first day, TRANSEXPO saw the hydrogen Autosan Sanctity 12LFH premiere; this low-floor, 12 meters long bus was designed based on an electric bus. An electric motor with a fuel-cell-powered module has been installed in the vehicle. The energy storage is based on lithium-titanate batteries and hydrogen tanks. The three trade fair premieres came from Solaris, including the 2021 novelty - the Urbino 9 LE electric bus. An on top of that all, the visitors were also given a chance to see two other debutants - Urbino 12 hydrogen and Urbino 15 LE electric. Blees - an autonomous electric minibus was also on show in Kielce. The vehicle is now being tested in Poland by a Gliwice-based company, which aspires to build a similar structure within a few years, however, based on its own autonomy system. Minibuses were also displayed at TRANSEXPO.
