Solaris Will Deliver 81 Urbino electric Buses to VR Sverige AB in Stockholm
Solaris will deliver 81 Urbino electric buses to VR Sverige AB for use around Stockholm by 2026, supporting Sweden’s zero-emission transport goals.
Polish manufacturer Solaris Bus & Coach has secured a new order from VR Sverige AB, a major Swedish public transport operator, for 81 units of its Urbino 15 LE electric buses. These fully electric, low-entry buses will be deployed in and around Stockholm beginning in the second quarter of 2026.
The new vehicles are homologated as Class II, making them suitable for both intercity and suburban operations. They will be equipped with Solaris High Energy batteries designed for long-range performance and reliable operation across varied routes.
This move expands Solaris’ footprint in the Swedish market. The company recently completed a successful delivery of 23 Urbino 15 LE electric units to Kristianstad. The latest contract with VR Sverige AB marks a continuation of that momentum and introduces Solaris as a new VR partner in the capital region.

The buses will feature advanced safety systems, spacious interiors, and a high level of travel comfort, while contributing to Stockholm’s transition to zero-emission public transport.
Once the new order is fulfilled, the Stockholm region will operate a total of 225 Solaris Urbino 15 LE electric buses.
Solaris reported sales of 1,525 vehicles in 2024, with over 80% being battery-electric, hydrogen, trolleybuses, or hybrids—reinforcing its status as one of Europe’s leading suppliers of clean transport solutions.
