BYD Company Ltd. has delivered the first three battery electric transit buses for the streets of Taiwan.
MiaoLi Motor Transportation Ltd. has officially taken delivery on three of BYD Company Ltd.’s electric transit buses.
“We are very glad to be BYD’s first customer in the Taiwan market. We chose these long-range transit buses to combat rising fuel costs as well as to protect our environment. They will surely be a success on the streets and on our balance sheets,” said Taiwan MiaoLi Motor Transport President Huang Yunxi.
"BYD’s eBus will provide a new environmentally-friendly, green option for people in Taiwan when they ride the shuttles in the city. What we do today plays a great role in environmental protection because replacing one Diesel or CNG bus is equivalent to avoid the CO2 of 33 private cars on the road," said Liu Xueliang, general manager of BYD Asia Pacific. “This historic first delivery to Taiwan symbolizes a unified goal for a cleaner tomorrow on both sides of The Taiwan Strait is hopefully the first of many to come.
