Reliance Industries and BharatBenz’s new bus delivers a gross system power of 127 Kw  and net power of 105 Kw, which is equivalent to 300 HP in line with current diesel bus for intercity applications. The intercity bus can travel approximately 400 km on single hydrogen fill and can bring long distance travel between cities on clean fuel like Hydrogen. The bus will undergo extensive trials, validation and safety trials over next 12 months.

It is worth noting that earlier on February 6, Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) unveiled India's first Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine technology solution for heavy-duty trucks flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the India Energy Week in Bangalore.
