byd motors president stella li stated, “it has been such a pleasure partnering with the leadership of the avta and indeed community leaders from across the region. avta’s new byd 60 - foot articulated bus is the first generation of the most advanced electric bus on the market. we celebrate this exciting day for the community, and we look forward to helping the avta ultimately meet its 100 percent zero emission transit fleet goal. ”
wave’s chief executive officer, michael masquelier, stated, “wave is honored to have been chosen as the sole provider of our revolutionary 250kw wireless chargers that contribute to the avta’s remarkable achievement. the avta and entire community should be proud of setting a high bar both regionally and nationally that others will look to as the zero - emissions transit model of the near future. we look forward to continuing this exciting partnership with the avta and to helping provide a blueprint for other communities to follow. ”
