“We have more buses than LANTA,” Superintendent Joseph Roy said. “That’s a lot of buses, driving a lot of miles every single day.”Unlike electric cars, where the prices have dropped as the vehicles have become more popular, the upfront costs for electric buses are steep compared to the diesel counterparts.

Is it living up to Biden's pledge?When President Biden signed the bipartisan infrastructure bill last November, it was hailed as a historic effort to tackle climate change. Almost a year later, USA TODAY spoke to experts to see if the bill's promises are meeting reality: It will have practically zero effect on global temperature. And I sincerely hope they leave the sun alone.

BASD has 110 buses that drive about 6,000 miles a day. On the inside, KEF has placed a set of 40mm dynamic drivers, which the company says has been engineered to “reveal the smallest details of your favorite music." The careful budgeter noticed her People's Gas bill stayed just as high when she was on her weeks-long trip, even though she wasn't home to use gas. “We have more buses than LANTA,” Superintendent Joseph Roy said.

A technician fixed the problem in her basement, and that led to another unexpected result: The amount she owed, $400. Certain electric buses retail for around $400,000 each, compared with $130,000 to $150,000 for a diesel bus, Roy said. The headphones are equipped with KEF’s Smart Active Noise Cancellation, a technology that makes its debut on the Mu7.

Within a half hour or so of getting put in the jacuzzi, she claimed, she began to feel significantly more disoriented, and her vision blurred while she had trouble understanding conversations going on around her. He estimated the district will be able to buy two buses with the state grant, and use the remaining money to cover the electric vehicle charging hardware and power supply. BASD is working with PPL on the bus charging stations.

Strangely, the press release sent to Digital Trends makes no mention of a companion transparency mode. It turned out she hadn't actually been paying for gas. “They’re not affordable” right now, and electric school bus pricing still has a ways to go, Roy said of electric school buses.

Since the buses travel in smaller geographic areas daily, charging the buses and keeping the charge is less of an issue than with other electric vehicles that need to travel further distances. For the price, there are definitely a few missing bells and whistles — no carry case, no wear sensors for auto-pausing music, and unless KEF neglected to mention it, no mobile app with adjustment for EQ, controls, or ANC settings.
