Is that still true for modern hybrid buses?
Edit - also surely mean you need to average 7 people as when it's full it'll be a little over 12 times as efficient as when there's 7 people. So it could run for 10 minutes full then about 2 hours completely empty and it would balance.
No i meant 7 cars worth of people. If a bus can displace 7 cars then it is only equal in efficiency. This applies to hybrid buses too as they only get marginally better performance per energy needed to use.
That makes no sense
The average number of people per car is 1.5 so its not like its crazy off. Not sure how that doesnt make sense
So you'd need the bus to have 10.5 people at all times? But why doesn't an average capacity work? Do you have an figures to back so this up, especially the hybrid bus claims?
