GreenCell Mobility’s NueGo brand has today unveiled its first electric fully sleeper bus, set to operate between key cities such as Delhi-Amritsar, Bangalore-Chennai, and Hyderabad-Rajahmundry. This is India’s first electric sleeper intercity bus and marks a significant step towards sustainable public transport.
The bus is powered by a robust 450 kWh high-voltage battery, offering a range of 350 kilometers per charge, with the capability to extend up to 600 kilometers per day using fast-charging technology.
Modern amenities include ergonomic sleeper berths, USB charging ports, and night reading lamps designed for passenger comfort.
Confirming the launch, Devndra Chawla, MD & CEO of GreenCell Mobility, stated, “This service sets a new benchmark in safety and convenience while promoting eco-friendly travel.”
The NueGo electric sleeper bus integrates advanced safety features like ABS brakes, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), full air suspension, and a rollover-engineered chassis.
Additional measures include CCTV surveillance, GPS tracking, driver breath analyzer tests, and a regulated speed limit of 80 km/h.
The buses employ regenerative braking technology and produce zero tailpipe emissions, aligning with national green mobility initiatives and significantly reducing environmental impact.
Women passengers will also benefit from a dedicated 24×7 helpline and a special ‘Pink Seat’ booking option, ensuring their safety and comfort during travel.
