GAZelle e-NN is an electric minibus developed by GAZ. Last year, the manufacturer released a test batch of prototypes, and now production cars have appeared on the roads of Nizhny Novgorod.

At the moment, these are only two minibuses operating short flights on the route “Strigino Airport – Park Kultury metro station.” Based on the experience of their operation, conclusions will be drawn about the use of electric minibuses in real conditions. GAZelle e-NN has not yet gone on sale.

It is known that the electric bus has the same frame, body and interior as the regular GAZelle NN with an internal combustion engine. The minibus uses an electric motor with a power of 100 kW (136 hp) and a torque of 310 Nm. The battery capacity is 48 kWh, and the range on a single charge is up to 120 km. It is possible to quickly charge from 0 to 80% in half an hour.
