The Wright StreetAir is a battery-electric transit bus sold in the United Kingdom. Like the Wright StreetLite, it is available in a "Door Forward" (DF) or "Wheel Forward" (WF) configuration. The StreetAir range was unveiled at an industry event in August 2016.
The StreetAir DF is built on the Wright StreetDeck chassis. It is available as a standard single deck vehicle in lengths of up to 12 metres and a double deck vehicle up to 10.6 metres. The StreetAir EV WF is based on StreetLite EV, which was introduced in 2012. The bus that was publicly unveiled was actually the demonstrator launched in 2012. It had since received a number of upgrades. Both variants use a Siemens ELFA 2 traction motor powered by Nickel Manganese Cobalt batteries. The bus can by charged by a plug-in connection, induction and opportunity conductive charging.[1]
