Vienna has received two new electric bus lines. These are the 17A and 70A lines in the south of Favoriten.

There, you can now find battery-powered electric buses from Mercedes. These are charged at a fast charging station at the Oberlaa subway stop for about a quarter of an hour after each round. At night, they go to the competence center for e-mobility in Siebenhirten.

17A and 70A: Vienna Got New Electric Bus Lines

"Already more than 80 percent of passengers are traveling emission-free with the subway, trams, and electric buses. With the start of the two new bus lines, we are taking the next important step towards climate neutrality," said public transport city councilor Peter Hanke (SPÖ) in a press release from Wiener Linien on Monday. "By the end of 2025, we will have converted about a fifth of our entire bus fleet to emission-free drives. This effectively saves us CO2 and provides even more quality of life for the Viennese."
