De Lijn secures up to 500 electric buses from Daimler Buses

De Lijn, a Flemish transport company, has signed a framework agreement with Daimler Buses for up to 500 electric buses and ordered over 80 e-buses from them. Additionally, De Lijn ordered 268 e-buses from BYD Europe. This move aligns with their goal of achieving a zero-emission public transport system by 2035, supported by a €400 million investment from the Flemish government. The new buses will feature modern amenities and safety features, enhancing De Lijn's sustainability efforts and passenger services.
