Developed by California-based Proterra, the Catalyst E2 Max set a new record for distance traveled of 1,101.2 miles on single charge for an electric bus. Some are suggesting that this can be a “break through moment” for electric vehicles and public transportation in overcoming “range anxiety.”



Proterra, the leading innovator in heavy-duty electric transportation, set a world record for driving the longest distance ever traveled by an electric vehicle on a single charge at the Navistar Proving Grounds in New Carlisle, Indiana. Proterra’s 40-foot Catalyst E2 max traveled 1,101.2 miles this month with 660 kWh of energy storage capacity.
