In 2014, Irizar became the first European factory of its sector to provide two 100% electric vehicles to Barcelona as part of the ZeEUS project, it also supplied San Sebastian with its first unit.
In 2015, the first units were provided to London, Marseilles and the metropolitan area of Barcelona, and tests were carried out in several European cities.
In 2016, supply was finalised for 6 units to Marseilles for the first fully electric line in France, and further units were supplied to San Sebastian and Bilbao. The first articulated bus unit was manufactured and has already undergone 6 months of durability tests in IDIADA (Tarragona).
The portfolio for 2017 has already risen to 15 buses and 12 metros to be delivered in the coming months, in addition to the 18 articulated buses of this contract with the Agglomeration of the Basque-Adour Coast.
