RIDE batteries undergo extensive testing and come
with a 12-year battery warranty. Through innovative technologies, rigorous testing, and comprehensive training programs, RIDE goes above and beyond to ensure battery safety—offering a level of assurance that sets us apart from our competitors in the market.
In addition to battery safety, RIDE electric school buses
have successfully passed some of the most rigorous structural tests in the industry, including a side intrusion test and the Colorado Racking and Kentucky Pull Test, ensuring maximum structural integrity and safety.
Furthermore, RIDE buses are equipped with all key
industry-standard safety components. Our engineering team works closely with suppliers to continuously enhance product safety from the rider’s perspective.
Will electric school buses affect driver performance? Electric school buses are designed to enhance, not
hinder, driver performance. Many drivers report a smoother and more responsive driving experience compared to diesel buses. With instant torque and regenerative braking, electric buses provide greater control and easier handling, particularly in stop-and-go traffic or on hilly routes.
The quiet operation of electric school buses heightens the drivers ability to monitor the school bus and its
passengers. The overall reduced noise level allows for clearer communication between the driver, students, and any adults on the bus, especially during emergencies or stops. The sustainable design also helps reduce harmful emissions, improving air quality for students—especially those with asthma or respiratory issues.
In addition, the quiet operation of electric buses
helps reduce driver fatigue and allows for better focus. Without the constant rumble of a diesel engine, drivers can hear and communicate better with their students, leading to a calmer and safer ride.
The shift to battery-electric school buses represents
more than just a change in technology—it’s a commitment to cleaner air, healthier communities, and a more sustainable future for our students. While the transition may come with questions, solutions are already in place to support every step of the journey. Let’s take the next step forward, together.
