Drive train
Ikarus’ expertise allows the company to develop different powertrains for the vehicles.
Adapting to the ever-changing needs of the
market, we have developed conventional diesel-powered drive systems with internal
combustion power plants and zero-emission battery-powered electric drive
systems as well. Thereby, our customers can choose products that best suit
their business needs.
The electric buses of IKARUS are powered by
CRRC's tDrive MD2021 synchronous motor, which drives the ZF AV133 rear axle via
a cardan shaft. The battery unit responsible for the power supply of the
vehicle is manufactured by CATL, with LiFePo4 cells and the capacity of 314 kWh
and 542 Ah. Some battery packs are placed at the rear of the bus, some are
located on the roof, which holds the possibility of the low-floor design and
the maximum number of seats for passengers.
The safety of the electric drive is ensured by
the battery monitoring and the automatic fire extinguishing systems.
