A fleet of 10 Chinese-made double-decker electric buses have started to provide services on a new route, launched for the Pan American Games 2023, in Santiago. According to a driver, these buses not only provide monitors which give the driver a view of the vehicle and its surroundings, but also prepare the passengers with wireless connectivity (wifi) and USB charging stations. In recent years, Chile has implemented a series of measures to curb harmful emissions and promote the development of electric vehicle industry. With the application of advanced technologies, the eco-friendly new energy vehicles from China have entered the Chilean market and been widely favored by local people. (Xinhua/Xin Yuewei)
