Coach Vehicle
DesignLine's EcoCoach is a high floor, single door bus powered by either compressed natural gas (CNG) or diesel fuel. The bus is built on a lightweight frame that lowers overall vehicle weight and improves fuel economy. The bus is designed for long routes with infrequent stops, such as intercity routes, or limited access transit routes (i.e. Park and Ride). DesignLine has a contract with New Jersey Transit to supply the agency with 76 EcoCoach buses by May 2013.
The EcoCoach is also the first 45 foot CNG coach to complete testing at the Altoona Bus Testing and Research Center.
