NUEGO LAUNCHES INDIA’S FIRST LONG-HAUL ELECTRIC AC SEATER + SLEEPER BUS SERVICE

INDIA, 16 APRIL 2024: NueGo, a pioneer in sustainable mass mobility, is set to revolutionise the long-distance travel journey with the launch of India’s first intercity electric bus service. This is a significant step towards decarbonization and creating a more sustainable public transportation ecosystem in India. There is growing adoption of electric buses amongst consumers, as they produce zero tail pipe emissions and reduce air pollution.

NueGo deployed multiple seater + sleeper buses on its major routes across India such as Bengaluru – Chennai, Bengaluru – Coimbatore, Vijaywada – Vizag, Delhi – Jaipur, Delhi – Amritsar. NueGo is planning to expand its operations by launching new routes and build charging infrastructure to ensure smooth on-road operations. NueGo is also actively hiring across genders to increase inclusivity in its workforce and is the only bus brand to have women coach captains.

Devndra Chawla, MD & CEO GreenCell Mobility, commented on the debut, saying, “NueGo is revolutionizing intercity bus travel with launch of India’s 1st long-haul Electric AC Sleeper Bus service. This marks a significant milestone to advance sustainable mass mobility across India and is consistent with our commitment to provide innovative solutions that benefit both the travellers and the environment. We are also elevating long-distance travel experience for our guests by incorporating smart technologies and emphasising on comfort, safety, and world class amenities.”

The cutting-edge buses have an aerodynamically designed FRP front fascia, a rollover-engineered structure to enhance passenger safety, and a weight-optimised GI tubular construction for better cruise mileage. The monocoque chassis design provides greater handling and stability for a smoother and safer ride. An electronically adjustable exterior rear-view mirror, lowered passenger step height for simple boarding, and a kneeling option for elderly or disabled passengers are all notable features.

Likewise, inside the bus, guests can have a comfortable journey with a variety of amenities such as bigger seats (1220mm), soft-touch ABS interiors, LED strips for ambient lighting, and individual amenities such as night reading lamps and USB charging connections for each berth. The buses are outfitted with advanced safety features such as a driver monitoring system, passenger saloon cameras, emergency buttons, and fire detection and suppression systems.

NueGo’s electric sleeper buses are also an environmentally friendly transportation alternative with zero exhaust emissions. The quiet and vibration-free nature of these buses, combined with developing technology such as regenerative braking, contribute to a soothing and enjoyable journey experience for passengers.
