Lion Electric says the order is conditional on a grant under the Quebec government’s school transportation electrification program and the federal government’s zero emission transit fund.
The order is in addition to 60 LionC buses ordered by Autobus Seguin in January.
Last month, Lion Electric received a conditional order for 1,000 electric school buses from Student Transportation of Canada.
