The individual regions are increasingly focusing on sustainability, so there are now electric ski buses in some ski areas.
The battery-powered ski bus is mainly used on the ski bus line in the valley between the 4-mountain ski area and on the Rohrmooser Plateau, where it brings winter sports enthusiasts directly to the mountain railway stations in an environmentally friendly and comfortable way. The e-bus also impresses with an enormous range of up to 400 kilometers.
“Our future goal is to convert the bus fleet to environmentally friendly vehicles. That's why we're happy to have the opportunity to test the modern electric ski bus throughout the season. As the largest Styrian leisure company, we will take further environmentally friendly measures in the future, so in the near future we will also start testing eFuel snow groomers and buses for the first time," says Planai Managing Director Georg Bliem.
"With a length of 12 meters and a width of 2.55 meters, the bus also offers plenty of space for a total of 83 people. We are already looking forward to the first days of operation with great anticipation," says Boris Milusic, Head of Buses.
