Range from hybrid drive up to pure electric drive

ELFA^® is a modular drive system therefore guaranteeing the highest degree of flexibility. This allows the vehicle manufacturer to configure the hybrid drive according to his individual requirements. As a result of the optimum combination coupled with intelligent energy management, fuel consumption and emissions can be significantly reduced.
Thanks to its flexible and modular system components the electric ELFA drive system can be used in commercial vehicles such as city buses employing the widest range of energy sources. In addition to internal combustion engines, these can also include electrical energy sources, such as e.g. battery, ultra capacitor and fuel cell.
