🇬🇧 Pelican, the (growing) partnership with Yutong Bus & Coach and the strategies in the UK bus market. Our interview with Ian Downie 🔗 The article: https://lnkd.in/dVU2VYjU 🔎 "We will sell around 500 vehicles this year, split 50/50 between electric and diesel. What we have also done, as other manufacturers have exited the UK coach market, we brought an electric TC12 coach. We then expanded the product range with a 14-meter 3-axles GT14 and announced at EURO BUS EXPO that we are going to bring also a 14-meter diesel coach on the market. We started with one single vehicle, we now have a portfolio of 9 variants of electric and diesel buses and coaches". #yutong #publictransport #buses #bus #autobus #mobility #transport
