Danny Akers, district shop supervisor, said maintenance is expected to cost less than than the more conventional Macon, Ga.-based Blue Bird Corp. school buses or from those of any of the other leading manufacturers of internal combustion rigs.
“The upkeep is the tires and brakes,” he said. “The batteries have an eight- year warranty.”
The battery pack for the bus costs about $30,000 and while steep, it’s been reduced from about $44,000 because of more widespread availability and market forces, Akers said.
Akers also said an intriguing feature of the bus installed for safety is a speaker equipped to play music while the bus travels at speeds of 20 miles per hour and less. “We could play Guns N’ Roses,” he said.
Likely, “Welcome to the Jungle,” a frequent stadium anthem, won’t be on the playlist. Add to that

anything that conjures the ice cream truck’s arrival. The music is to warn those in the vicinity that the bus has begun to roll.
Lee Reed, district lead vehicle mechanic, has driven the buses since their recent arrival and said the familiar exterior masks some pretty significant differences. He said in addition to the engine and drive train, the platform and weight distribution is unlike its fossil fuel contemporaries, giving the bus a different feel while offering a similar ride. He also said the aisles are wider and the higher floor means there are no wheel wells cutting into passenger leg room.
“They’re different than standard buses,” he said. “You have to be careful. Driving it, it’s nice because it’s quiet. You can hear the kids more.”
Reed said like any new purchase they have their quirks that require fixes and or adjustment. But he said they also have impressive features like the regeneration system. “You can actually watch your power recover,” he
