By the end of February, 214 Yutong new energy buses will commence operation within the public transport system of Santiago, the capital of Chile. The vehicles arrived in early January, heralding the year of the Dragon.

This batch of buses set a record for the largest new energy bus order in Chile and aims to solve the problem of long-distance commuting between the main urban area of Santiago and the surrounding towns.

To better fulfill customer needs and maximize operational value, the Chinese bus maker Yutong has tailored the buses to satisfy local conditions, working environments, and usage patterns.

Recognizing the opportunities presented by the Belt and Road Initiative, Yutong has facilitated bilateral exchanges and cooperation in various fields between China and Chile ever since the two countries established diplomatic ties. Chile was the first South American country to establish diplomatic relations with China.

Yutong made its initial foray into Chile in 2005, with applications spanning public transportation, municipal services, and mining trucks.
