This means the floor of the bus can be lower because the pack doesn\u2019t have to be installed on top of the chassis rails.<\/p>\n<section data-is-mosaic=\"0\" contenteditable=\"false\" draggable=\"true\" data-widget=\"image\" data-border=\"\" data-id=\"8252336\">\n        <span class=\"svg-search\"><br \/>\n            <svg>\n                <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/design\/dist\/critical\/icons\/sprite-common-0-1de6c82323269ad4e75a31f5f21e741f.svg#semidir\"\/>\n            <\/svg><br \/>\n        <\/span>\n    <picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s5\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.webp 213w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s6\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.webp 445w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s4\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.webp 889w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s3\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.webp 1280w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s2\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.webp 1440w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s1\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.webp 1920w&#10;        \" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) calc(100vw - 24px), (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 48px), 644px\"><source type=\"image\/jpeg\" srcset=\"&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s5\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.jpg 213w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s6\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.jpg 445w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s4\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.jpg 889w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s3\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.jpg 1280w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s2\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.jpg 1440w,&#10;            https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/404K0q\/s1\/byd-e-bus-platform-3.0.jpg 1920w&#10;        \" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) calc(100vw - 24px), (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 48px), 644px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/static\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"BYD e-Bus Platform 3.0\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n    <\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<div class=\"photo-title\">\n<p>BYD e-Bus Platform 3.0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Photo by: BYD<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p>The first bus based on this new platform, the C11, is available in China with five capacity options, from 184 kilowatt-hours all the way up to 593 kilowatt-hours, resulting in a CLTC-rated range between 136 miles (220 kilometers) and 453 miles (730 kilometers).<\/p>\n<p>The wide range of battery options can cater to local transit buses, as well as regional transport services. Going the extra mile is also possible thanks to the impressive 1,000-volt rating of the high-voltage batteries, a first in the bus sector, which would allow them to charge at ultra-fast speeds. That said, BYD didn\u2019t say how much time it would take to go from 10% to 80% on the largest LFP pack offered on the C11 model.<\/p>\n<section class=\"relatedContent-new\" contenteditable=\"false\" draggable=\"true\" data-widget=\"related-content\" data-widget-size=\"content\" data-params=\"%7B%22type_id%22%3A0%2C%22title_id%22%3A%22%22%2C%22items%22%3A%5B%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22759552%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22MAN%E2%80%99s%20First%20Electric%20Coach%20Has%20An%20Enormous%20Battery%20Pack%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22man-electric-coach-specs-reveal%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22is_video%22%3A%220%22%2C%22images%22%3A%7B%22s5%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motor1.com%2Fimages%2Fmgl%2Fy23xPb%2Fs5%2Fman-lion-s-coach-e-sketch.jpg%22%7D%7D%2C%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22732813%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22This%20Unassuming%20Bus%20Is%20An%20EREV%20That%20Runs%20On%20Ethanol%E2%80%93The%20World%E2%80%99s%20First%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22volare-attack-9-erev-ethanol-bus%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22is_video%22%3A%220%22%2C%22images%22%3A%7B%22s5%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motor1.com%2Fimages%2Fmgl%2FeoKlEM%2Fs5%2Fvolare-attack-9-hibrido.jpg%22%7D%7D%2C%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22681014%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22EV%20Bus%20And%20Parts%20Maker%20Proterra%20Files%20For%20Bankruptcy%20Protection%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22proterra-files-for-bankruptcy-protection%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22is_video%22%3A%220%22%2C%22images%22%3A%7B%22s5%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motor1.com%2Fimages%2Fmgl%2FEr87B%2Fs5%2Fproterra-zx5-electric-bus.jpg%22%7D%7D%2C%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22565730%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22BYD%20Unveils%20V2G-Capable%20Type%20A%20Electric%20School%20Bus%20For%20The%20US%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22byd-typea-electric-school-bus%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22is_video%22%3A%220%22%2C%22images%22%3A%7B%22s5%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.motor1.com%2Fimages%2Fmgl%2FOovE9R%2Fs5%2Fbyd-type-a-all-electric-school-bus.jpg%22%7D%7D%5D%7D\">   <\/section>\n<p>An adaptive suspension system called DiSus-A, <a href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/news\/661668\/byd-yangwang-u9-suspension-three-wheels-jumps\/\" data-inline-widget=\"internal-links\" data-type-id=\"0\" data-params=\"%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22661668%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22byd-yangwang-u9-suspension-three-wheels-jumps%22%7D\">borrowed from BYD\u2019s passenger EVs<\/a>, can be fitted to buses riding on the new platform, and there\u2019s also a high-speed tire blowout stability system that can react in milliseconds to keep the bus on track during blowouts at speeds of up to 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour), according to the Chinese maker.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, if something bad were to happen to the driver, the passengers can activate a one-touch stop button on the dashboard to automatically stop the bus.

And, more importantly, it could make its way to the United States.
