The buses will be built without a traditional engine tower and will feature a modular drive system architecture, consistent with the configuration already selected by the Warsaw operator. Solaris states that the 12-metre Urbino electric buses for MZA will be equipped with battery packs exceeding 500 kWh, while the articulated 18-metre versions will carry batteries with a capacity above 700 kWh."

Miejskie Zakłady Autobusowe has exercised the contract extension option included in the agreement signed with Solaris Bus & Coach in September 2025. The original order covered 79 electric buses and has now been doubled through the addition of an identical batch, Solaris states."
