The fact that it is necessary to write off those first Solaris that arrived in 2004. Every second one has already been carved. And we are still only changing old damages.
I really hope that the autonomous mode will allow the trolleybuses to go faster than the current 9 km/h (or whatever speed they are dragging there) at intersections and roundabouts.
They won't go faster because their sticks fall off the cables. Autonomous is here only so that you can change the route, drive from one contact network to another.
What prevents driving in autonomous mode in junctions or roundabouts (where traffic is most obstructed)? All over Europe (where there are still some of them left), trolleybuses run part of the route in autonomous mode.
Everywhere in Europe, the network is sufficiently modernized (technically, you can drive up to 60 km/h in all places), although no one peels the network because of 2 slow-speed crossings. Anyway, in Vilnius ~2006, many intersections were changed to modern ESKO ones with a passing speed of 40 km/h, but most drivers still do not know how to distinguish them from the old Soviet intersections designed in the 1960s.
Those old 40-year-old cans will probably still be used for several years, if only less than 100 will be replaced before the beginning of next year. It's just unfortunate how delayed the trolley update is.
The old Soviet red-magnolia trolleybus colors that were left behind are already sickening.
it looks like a vemal and it will still be attached to the cord 😀

And why can't lifting sticks be designed like trams that charge furu batteries on the highway....???
I hope it will be easy for old and disabled people to get into them, and to get into them now, you need to climb mountains...
