FOR TWO weeks, the waste disposal company of the city of Ulm (EBU) was testing the Q-Econic, a fully electric collection vehicle from the e-mobility specialist Quantron AG which emptied around 900 waste bins every day over a distance of 80 kilometres on average. During the test phase, the Q-Econic not only impressed with its emission free and quiet operation, but also mastered the road gradients of Ulm without any problems, confirmed an EBU spokesman.
