Energy: test and deployment of hybrid vehicles
Diesel engines of low capacity and electric traction, with recuperation of braking energy and "start and stop" function (the heat engine goes off during the stop) Reducing fuel consumption (about 30%), CO2 and NOx emissions For less noise and more comfort for the passagers.

17 Tyre system in France
Lyon: test of 6 vehicles (Iveco, Man, Volvo) during one year (2013-2014) • Testing the economic model and the balance between higher acquisition costs and gains in consumption and maintenance costs (for example, functioning and wear of the battery) • Pollutant emissions and comfort of the passengers, the drivers, the local residents • Testing in real operating conditions and comparison with diesel buses on the same lines.

ELLISUP (Electric bus with lithium batteries and super-capacities) • A project supported by ADEME funds in 2009 • A prototype developed by Iveco Bus with Michelin, EDF, RATP and CEA Grenoble, • Presented at Busworld Kortrijk in October 2013 and at the Rencontres Nationales du Transport Public Bordeaux in November 2013 • Testing on a RATP line during 2014
22 Tyre system in France
• An electric engine accommodated in 4 of the 8 wheels • A gain of internal space: 10 to 20 % of additional passengers • Autonomy for 8 to 10 km • Fast charging terminus station: the lithium battery can be charged in 4 minutes

Comfort and accessibility In France, the February 11th, 2005, Act requires to ensure accessibility to all public places and the entire transport chain by 2015 90% of low-floor buses, more than 60 % of the fleet has at least one accessibility element (visual or audible announcement of stops, kneeling system, range of access and / or space for wheelchairs) All the bus lines in Paris are accessible to wheelchair users
27 LOGO ENTE Tyre system in France
Transport networks have specific requests regarding interior and location of seats. • wider seats suitable for people of high body mass • floor without vibration • lighting varies according to the time of the day • spaces with different colors (for example., front seats = blue, for disabled persons = red, for young persons in the back = yellow...) • valuation of the customers welcome and ergonomics of the driver’s place

Design The external image of rolling stock is very important for Councils who want a custom network. In France, each network has a specific look for identification : • Crealis Irisbus in Paris: cache-wheels, bottom of the windows and colored direction indicator front and side • Neo Crealis Irisbus of Tzen Ile-de-France: rounded forms, sliding doors, large windows, CCTV and air conditioning
