The Orion Bus Industries Orion VII NEW GENERATION HYBRID DIESELLITIUM_ION is a low floor transit bus that was Build in Canada and the United States by NEWFLYER INDUSTRIES restyled Orion VII NG was introduced in 2009 It features updated front and rear fascias and flushmounted windows Coincident with the introduction of EPA 2007 compliant engines a restyled Orion VII was introduced in 2007 It features updated front and rear fascias and flushmounted windows The new model called the Orion VII Next Generation replaced the traditional Orion VII the Orion VII is not fully low floor and has a step up at the rear section of the bus This compensates for the space lost to the rear wheels on the Orion VI The buss structure was built from either carbon steel or stainless steel and clad with fibre glass and aluminum panels The Orion VII NG is available in a desielelectric hybrid The engine Build by CUMMINS USA On hybrid models the engine is placed transversely at the rear right side of the bus and is connected to the electric generator to the left Dieselpowered models use a 125 gallon 473 litre fuel tank placed under the high floor The Orion VII was available in a conventional diesel dieselelectric hybrid or compressed natural gas CNG drivetrain The engine is mounted longitudinally at the rear in a Tdrive arrangement for conventional diesel and CNGpowered models On hybrid models the engine is placed transversely at the rear right side of the bus and is connected to the electric generator to the left Dieselpowered models use a 125 gallon 473 litre fuel tank placed under the high floor Features Engine 59liter Cummins ISB diesel engine Generator 120 kW permanent magnet generator Electric motor 320 peak hp electric motor Batteries 46 leadacid aircooled batteries Control system Optimizes performance for emissions fuel economy and power Transmission No traditional transmission Propulsion system BAE Systems HybriDrive series diesel Diesel particulate filter Removes particles from the exhaust Benefits Lower emissions than conventional diesel buses Higher fuel economy than conventional diesel buses Quicker acceleration and Improved overall operating costs per mile

High performance and highly efficient combustion engine helps suppress PM generation. The combination of advanced technologies, such as regenerative DPF and BlueTec exhaust after-treatment system (urea SCR), achieves a high level of both fuel efficiency and environmental performance, with reduced CO2 emissions. In addition to 4WD, a low-floor makes it easy to get on and off. The Rosa with cold weather specifications such as a 10kw pre-heater standard.
