First customer test drive the new battery-electric Mercedes-Benz eIntouro

London, April 03, 2025, (Oilandgaspress) ––The Mercedes-Benz eIntouro, the new battery-electric intercity bus from Daimler Buses, successfully passed its first customer test drive at the beginning of April. The near-production prototype completed the approximately 380‑kilometre test drive on the regular route of the EUROBUS Rustexpress from Swiss Bassersdorf via Zurich to the Europa-Park theme park in Rust, Baden-Württemberg, and back. On board, representatives of the Swiss bus travel company EUROBUS and Europa-Park were extremely impressed by the advantages of the fully electric bus. Until now, EUROBUS has operated the Rustexpress with conventionally powered touring coaches, mostly from Daimler Buses.

Mercedes-Benz eIntouro: first electric intercity bus from Daimler Buses

The Mercedes‑Benz eIntouro is based on the familiar diesel-powered high-floor Mercedes‑Benz Intouro bus, but is equipped with a purely battery-electric drive instead. As a result, Daimler Buses now makes it possible to switch to electric mobility for classic interurban routes, school buses and shorter excursions for the first time.

In addition to the 12.18-metre-long eIntouro, the eIntouro M with a length of 13.09 metres will also be available. This allows seating variants from 50 up to a maximum of 63 seats. For the first time in a European bus, software updates can be installed in the eIntouro “over the air” – without a workshop visit.
