"Menarini presented its Flash and Airon new electric bus models at Next Mobility Exhibition, displaying the 8-meter and 12-meter versions following the announcement of major product updates at the Milan trade fair. The company is also relaunching its ambition to expand on international markets."
"The vehicles on display included the 8-meter Flash and the 12-meter Airon, both featuring full low-floor architecture and roof-mounted battery systems. The Italian manufacturer, now owned by Seri Industrial, showcased two platforms dedicated to electric urban transport, developed for different operational segments."
"The driveline adopts a permanent magnet synchronous motor supplied by Accelera by Cummins (formerly Siemens), mounted in rear longitudinal layout and capable of delivering 290 kW peak power and 3,000 Nm torque. For battery technology, Menarini uses BorgWarner NMC battery modules with total capacity reaching up to 392 kWh. The system includes liquid cooling and thermal pre-conditioning. Declared range exceeds 300 km for the 8-meter version and 400 km for the 9-meter model."
"The structure is based on a self-supporting monocoque body with high-strength tubular steel frame and full immersion cathodic anti-corrosion treatment. The chassis, developed on an all-new platform, integrates independent front suspension, rear portal axle and air suspension with kneeling function. The Menarini Flash range is available in 8-meter and 9-meter configurations, with overall lengths of 8.258 and 9.443 meters respectively."
