BYD Secures Extra Orders from Sydney Airport Transport Provider
“We are the first Chinese company to crack Australia’s electric bus market, having come a long way since the
trial of our electric buses at the country’s busiest airport in Sydney in late 2014,” said Liu Xueliang, General
Manager of BYD’s Asia Pacific Auto Sales Division. “This additional order from a large transport provider like
Carbridge is testimony to our quality service and state of the art technology – and was a very nice present just
before the Lunar New Year.”
The Electric Blu bus has a carrying capacity of 70 passengers; features purpose-designed luggage storage
racks and has a range of 400km on a single charge. The fleet of six currently in operation at Sydney Airport is
also estimated to lower carbon emissions by 160 tons a year, reduce waste fluids and noise levels.
The Electric Blu is part of an extensive range of BYD products currently available in the Australian market, one
of 15 in the Asia Pacific region.
