That low-speed tone is used as the doors closing tone for the Montreal Metro.

The sound come from montreal subway.

No more Cummins man that was really nice sound

Lion buses should have an option to play various sounds and tunes

Fun Fact: the 3 tones are the sound the Montreal's subway trains makes when they start. This sound is well known by all montrealers. Lion is based in St-Jérôme, near Montreal. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fqiolbtnt8jTpo0.html

The less customers for big oil, the better off we are.

I don't know about everyone else but I want an honest answer. Those 3 tones, you want to listen to that all day? I hope they change the tones up a bit because that tone generator is like the icecream truck all day long.

I just realized I ride in those buses

And if you think it is unique to California, you're *wrong wrong wrong* - why else would Lion have added a plant on the OTHER coast (specifically, in eastern Pennsylvania) - and it's not just there for bus manufacture? Also, Lion has competition merely in electric school buses - none other than the biggest of predators - Thomas Built Buses of High Point, NC (and the eC2 - the follow-on to last year's Jouley - also based on the C2). Low-emission busses (and not just school busses) are, in fact, quite real - WMATA (Washington Metro Area Transit Authority) has zero-emission *transit busses* in their fleet - and they have been there for two years - I've ridden them - so they are in revenue service - right now. In other words - they are anything BUT a joke.

How will that noise go over at 6am when people are sleeping lol

That tone would piss me off

Nice going California! BUILD Back Better! Wow; the differnce in the sound! Much better!!!

Only people living in Montreal know what that sound knows

I do wish all electric school buses had solar panels, and a generator that way the batteries can get a free charge from the sun, and a generator back up on cloudy, snowy, and rainy days. Solar panels, and a generator can be a life saver during a power outage.

That's not the sound you need, you need the blast of a good old DAF/VDL bus horn and that won't just alert you but make you shit yourself.

Why did they remove the reverse sound?

How much are you saving in fuel cost each month?

They must have a partnership with international cause it looks like a a international lt

It’s 2021, what y’all looking like?

Only 100 miles? What about when students go on field trips?

ALL STATES should allow cameras to video jerks blowing by RED LIGHTS on a school bus.

Its 2021, r they full electric now...

Since, I only knew electric cars for so many years I just never knew as I have watched Arthur, before seeing this and that's when I discovered thinking like oh, I never thought of electric school buses like were there real one's in real life too so there it is existed I checked searched, like whoa and also I was a bit shocked about not having an old school bus sound anymore and he started to mention that so I was like that's what I'm thinking now at 1:20 and I was thinking the boo-boo-booo sound should've have an old fashion school bus sound still replaced when having no burning diesel energy exhaust at all for traditionalists or like me or anybody who worries about not hearing the old school bus sound anymore that I or we'll missed, I last been on a school bus was last June to Medieval Times outing and so I hope the electric school buses would have the old sounds too rather the boo-boo-booo on all of them should be on most of them, but no gasoline breathing by kids, but hearing a cool old style sound with clean air breathing.

2:52 I Saw Air Vent

Why do you need music for bus We already had to much noise from busses now

where the sound is from kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fLN1rcl1stHXeHU.html

When will Illinois get something this nice instead they want to keep those dirty old diesel buses

Bro I’m not getting on that fucking little kid bus bro sounds like the fucking ice cream truck bro I like the gas international period

Tesla should make a school bus.

What they dont mention is how big of a carbon footprint it resulted from the manufacturing of the bus vs letting the current diesel fleet natural retire, and how is the power supplied to charge the bus generated?

Any fires yet?

Anyone else seen how it looks like a Thomas c2 they couldn't even design their own bus design just stole Thomas's c2 design Thomas should sue Lion's butts off!!

I don't think we'll see these in Pennsylvania for a long time too many hills and wooded area

That interior of that bus is OUTDATED.

It not fair I want to ride on electric bus

I’m from SC I don’t wanna replace them with that.

Elon Musk enters the chat.

This bus is overpriced, just like most other North American electric vehicles. Sure, the a Tesla also costs 2.5 times as much compared to a regular gasoline car. However, a Nissan LEAF or Hyundai Kona Electric/Kia Niro Electric only costs 50% more than a comparable gasoline car. I guess union labor, mismanagement, and excessive bureaucracy (or something like that) makes things too expensive.

Ooh these buses are pretty imma buy one of those and destroy the seats and put tables with ice creams and go through the smooth streets saying OH YAHHH BOIII FREE ICE CREAM ON DEHHH BUS *parents be like* ... kids don’t.

Sksksk citing.. WAIT WHAT

This is out rages IC and know Thomas WTF know a days it’s only electronics

What a waste of money

First of all that tritone is even more annoying than hearing the diesel engine second the manufacturing of batteries creates way more pollution(acid rain) than a diesel engine. The only difference is the pollution is somewhere else! You're being lied to.

I could not drive my school bus hearing those stupid tones all day long. Grants are a cheating way to go green. Will there be enough grant money to buy ALL NEW BUISES???
