Playing a pioneering role in the transformation of public transport with electric, hydrogen and autonomous technologies, Karsan continues to take part in international organisations. Karsan, one of the most preferred brands in Europe, North America and Japan with its vision of being “One Step Ahead in the Future of Mobility”, took its place at the opening of Luxembourg Hydrogen Valley (LuxHyVal).
Emphasis on zero emission in public transport
At the ceremony, which took place with the participation of the European Union delegation, ministry and municipality representatives, Sales Lentz and Karsan executives and many members of the press, Karsan introduced the e-ATA HYDROGEN model beyond environmentally friendly transport solutions to the participants and visitors at the event in Luxembourg, one of its target markets. Thus, the brand emphasised zero emission with the e-ATA HYDROGEN model, which is inspired by nature and features green hydrogen technology in line with the goals of a better world and a sustainable future. Karsan, in successful collaboration with Sales Lentz, one of the pioneering operators in the transformation of electric public transport, stands as the leader of the electric bus market in Luxembourg. Karsan CEO Okan Baş said that Karsan e-ATA HYDROGEN, which they presented at the opening, attracted great interest and added: ” LuxHyVal aims to promote green hydrogen initiatives across the entire value chain, from local production to usage, including storage and distribution and to integrate with existing or planned infrastructures. As Karsan, we are delighted to be a partner in the use of environmentally friendly hydrogen in the mobility sector.”
The target is to transform 10 percent of public transport into hydrogen technology
Emphasising that Karsan is the only brand that can offer three different technologies – electric, hydrogen and autonomous – together with its vision of being “one step ahead in the future of mobility”, Okan Baş continued as follows: “As Karsan, we are pleased to be a partner of this project, which supports LuxHyvAL’s goal of creating 10 percent of its public transport fleet from hydrogen vehicles. With our e-ATAK model in Luxembourg, we closed the year as the leader of the electric bus market with a share of 38 percent. While we continue to contribute to public transport in line with our zero-emission targets, we are also taking important steps in hydrogen technology. Hydrogen-fueled vehicles are seen as a significant advantage in the fight against global warming and climate change, and the European Union, in particular, offers substantial policies and support to encourage the adoption of zero-emission vehicles. We aim to be a pioneer in this transformation with our vehicles like the e-ATA HYDROGEN, which boasts the best features in its class.”
