The Turkish company signed an agreement for the delivery of 40 trams to Timișoara City Hall and 34 trams to Iași City Hall.

The contract with Timișoara City Hall will include the delivery in two different batches. Lot I includes eight 12 m battery-powered trolleybuses, and Lot II includes 25 articulated 18m trolleybuses.

“We are extremely proud to announce that we have won the tender for new trolleybuses in Timișoara. After delivering 25 trams, we continue to improve citizens’ quality of life by supporting public transport mobility. The company’s goal is to provide modern and ecological transport solutions, and this new project won in Timișoara reflects our continuous commitment to innovation and sustainability”, said Aytunç Günay, Chairman of Bozankaya’s Board of Directors.
