Hamburger Hochbahn AG has ordered 350 electric buses from Daimler, specifically the Mercedes-Benz eCitaro and eCitaro G models, due to their low total cost of ownership and ease of repair. This contract supports Hamburg's goal of transitioning to a 100% zero-emissions bus fleet by the early 2030s. The eCitaro, awarded the 'Electric Bus Champion' title in 2024, features advanced safety systems and will operate on green electricity.
