BAIC FOTON Supports Public Welfare Development in the DRC with Delivery of First Batch of Custom School Buses and City Buses

BAIC FOTON recently held a delivery ceremony in Kolwezi, the capital of Lualaba Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), to mark the handover of a fleet of passenger vehicles. The delivery includes 30 custom-designed FOTON school buses and city buses, which will primarily be used for transporting students at public primary and secondary schools in Kolwezi, as well as Unico University. These vehicles will also serve the city’s public transit system, contributing to the improvement of local education infrastructure and public services.

The school fuel cell bus delivered this time come in two models. One has been specially customized to suit the high-temperature climate of the DRC. Key upgrades include enhanced air conditioning capacity, improved ventilation and cooling vents, and the addition of a mechanical fan to ensure passenger comfort. The seating capacity has also been increased from 48 to 56 seats to better meet actual operational needs.

Make Sure You’re Available to Show the Vehicle

Even the “right” time to advertise your vehicle will be the “wrong” time if you’re too busy to follow through with interested shoppers. No matter how good your vehicle is, no one’s going to wait while you try to find time to meet with them and show it to them; and a rushed showing while you’re trying to meet other obligations isn’t going to do you any favors either. If necessary, have a knowledgeable friend or employee show them the vehicle, but be sure to make time to work on the deal.
