''California is allocating an historic amount of grant funding for electric vehicles, especially electric school buses, which we believe has created an unprecedented level of excitement with school district transportation officials about electric school buses, which we have seen at these Ride-and-Drive events,'' said John Roselli, VP of Sales & Marketing at ADOMANI®. Roselli continued, ''The past Ride-and-Drive events led to electric school bus orders, and with this new round of 14 Ride-and-Drive events, and the available funding, we look forward to the possibility of supplying Blue Bird with even more electric drivetrains for its Type C and Type D all-electric buses in California.''
The Ride-and-Drive events will be hosted by 14 school districts throughout California, as well as the California Energy Commission (CEC), beginning in Rialto, California, after which the Blue Bird All American RE Type D Electric school bus will make its way to Northern California, then finally to Reno, Nevada, where it will be showcased at the 2018 School Transportation News EXPO Conference 7 Trade Show on July 16 and 17.
