Swedish bus operator 4300 Nobina has ordered 13 electric 609 Volvo buses, which will operate in Malmö from the end of next year.
 
The new buses are the Volvo 7900 Electric model. They are said to use about 80 per cent less energy than corresponding diesel buses and will be powered by green electricity to minimise environmental and climate impact. The bus batteries will be fast-charged at the route's end stops via the open interface OppCharge (opportunity charging), a process that takes between three and six minutes.
