The Russian developer and manufacturer of modern urban electric transport - PC Transport Systems - has completed the delivery of the consignment of 24 nos. upgraded Admiral 6281.01 trolleybuses with increased autonomous run to Saratov. Each of the trolleybuses is designed to carry 85 passengers. The rolling stock was produced at the Engels Electric Transport Plant.

Admiral trolleybus is a completely low-floor model, it has ergonomic bright interior with additional illumination of accumulation areas. The increased carrying capacity of the tram is provided by three wide doorways. Built-in automatic climate control, multimedia systems, USB connectors for charging mobile gadgets make the journey more comfortable.

The interior design made of aluminum reduces the fire load and increases the service life of internal structures, while environmentally friendly electric heating systems reduce the emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere.

The energy storage system installed in the trolleybus is a new domestic layout solution in the field of lithium-ion batteries, developed jointly with the PC Energy Systems. Due to the battery pack weight reduction by 100 kg the manufacturer managed to increase the passenger capacity.
