With advanced FSG technologies, Higer bus is energy efficient and environmentally friendly. Compared with traditional fuel powered buses, it is able to help bus operators cut fuel costs by 20%. Starting off by electricity, Higer hybrid bus is extremely powerful and has no problem in climbing slopes. While driving on the Gebi desert, the vehicle is powered by oil. After entering the scenic spots, it will shift to electric power, which is extremely helpful for protecting cultural relics.
Dunhuang, as one of the key cultural exchange centers along the silk road, has been attracting growing attention from the world. The first Silk Road (Dunhuang) International Cultural Expo provides a new platform for countries and regions to deepen their ties and strengthen their cooperation.
