A Proterra 40-foot Catalyst XR (extended range) electric bus drove 258 miles (415 miles) on a single charge under test conditions at Michelin’s Laurens Proving Grounds (LPG). Proterra offers both extended-range (XR) and fast-charge (FC) versions of its electric bus, using different battery technologies.

The energy storage system incorporates the latest Lithium Titanate (LTO) technology, which significantly increases energy density, allows for faster charging and enables pure electric (engine off) extended range capability. With the launch of eGen Flex Allison will offer two distinct models, eGen Flex and eGen Flex Max.

Proterra offers both extended-range (XR) and fast-charge (FC) versions of its electric bus, using different battery technologies. The TerraVolt FC fast charge battery option (lithium titanate, LTO chemistry) allows for maximum run time with minimum dwell time. Earlier post.) Actual mileage will vary with route conditions.

Nearly six times more efficient than a diesel or CNG bus, the Catalyst is also ~15% more energy efficient per mile than its closest competitor’s electric bus on the same test (BYD, which averaged 1.988 kWh/mile), which translates to a lower lifetime energy consumption of 15%. While conventional diesel buses average 3.86
