HESS | Motion & Emotion

Economical and ideal for urban use

Public transport is booming. In metropolitan areas especially, more and more people want a way to travel from point A to point B that is convenient, fast and safe. HESS has developed an elegant alternative that provides greater transport capacity in the form of its lighTram^®, a 25-meter-long double-articulated bus. This extremely nimble giant with its first-rate handling performance, quiet engine, zero emissions and energy recovery has become a top seller in only a few years.

Maximum transport capacity

• 4-axle bus with 2-axle drive
• Accommodates up to 200 passengers
• Low noise and emissions (reduced exhaust gas and particulate matter)
• Energy recovery from 15–35 % (depending on route profile and traffic flow)
• Nimble thanks to double articulation
