"The Solaris Urbino 10,5 electric has been developed for routes where a conventional 12-metre bus is not considered the optimal configuration. The vehicle measures 10.5 metres in length and has been conceived for operation in dense urban environments, feeder services and historic city centres requiring increased manoeuvrability."
"The model is based on Solaris' modular drive architecture, which allows drivetrain components to be integrated without the use of a conventional rear engine tower. The interior layout enables a passenger capacity of up to 85 passengers, including up to 33 seated passengers, positioning the vehicle among the highest-capacity models in the midibus segment."
"According to the manufacturer, the bus features a turning radius below 17 metres. The vehicle is equipped with a 240 kW electric motor and battery packs with capacities reaching up to 400 kWh. Solaris states that the configuration enables full-day operation without intermediate charging."
"The Urbino 10,5 electric supports both plug-in charging and pantograph charging systems. The vehicle also complies with the latest GSR2 safety requirements and can be specified with additional driver assistance systems. An energy-efficient CO₂ heat pump is integrated into the thermal management system. The battery-electric drivetrain allows zero local emissions during operation and reduced noise levels in urban service conditions."
Solaris presented the Urbino 10,5 electric midibus at Next Mobility Milano 2026, following its initial reveal at Busworld 2025. The 10.5-metre vehicle is designed for dense city centers, feeder services, and historic areas where a conventional 12-metre bus is not optimal. A modular drive architecture integrates drivetrain components without a conventional rear engine tower, supporting an interior capacity of up to 85 passengers, including up to 33 seated. The bus has a turning radius below 17 metres, a 240 kW electric motor, and battery packs up to 400 kWh for full-day operation without intermediate charging. It supports plug-in and pantograph charging, meets GSR2 safety requirements, and can include driver assistance systems. An energy-efficient CO₂ heat pump supports thermal management, enabling zero local emissions and reduced noise during urban operation.
