The Land Transport Authority (LTA) of Singapore has launched a tender for 660 new electric buses, including 360 three-door single-deckers and 300 three-door double-deckers, with deliveries expected by 2027. This will increase the total number of battery-powered buses in Singapore to 1,140.
The tender follows previous purchases of 360 electric single-deck buses in November 2023 and 60 additional units in October 2024. The new buses will feature automatic fire suppression systems, on-board surveillance with collision detection, and passenger information displays. The move aligns with LTA’s goal to transition to a cleaner energy public bus fleet by 2040.
