Electric shuttles for Nice airport

Green Scene
Nice-Côte d'Azur airport is to be equipped with 100% electric shuttles.

These will be used to route passengers between the different car parks and the two terminals: two Mercedes eCitaro buses will be put into service on November 28. Transdev Alpes-Maritimes was selected by the airport to transport passengers on board these shuttles. In total, three 100% electric buses will run seven days a week between the hours of 4.30am and 2.30am.

With a range of 160 kilometres, the shuttles will be able to run for about 8 hours, which will allow two buses to operate simultaneously and continuously. Up to 90 people can be carried on the 12 metre shuttles.

The Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur region and the Nice Côte d'Azur Metropolis both contributed to the acquisition of this fleet. With these 100% electric shuttles, Nice airport intends to continue its efforts and its commitment to reach the threshold of zero CO2 emissions by 2030.
