Soon you will be able to brag about “fitting the whole gang in your bussy” !
20hp
737lb-ft torque
Sweet Jesus Christ.
That’s more torque than a lot of modern muscle cars have. I know electric motors can shit out a lot of torque, but holy fuck.
The ebussy needs a lot of thrust
Well yeah, it’s clearly a size queen. If you can’t compete with size, then you need deep, hard thrust.
That eBussy is demanding it.
Look at it.
I’d drive that eBussy all night long!
It’s like a farm tractor.
Top speed of around 100kph. Not that high, but it will get to that speed right the fuck now.
It’s because the way we measure torque on electric motors doesn’t compare to the way we measure torque on ICE cars. A “muscle car” will be much, much stronger than these busses even though they claim “700 lb-ft” of torque.
Oh, they know exactly what they’re doing.
The entire karma train could ride in the eBussy’s marketing department.
And you know that eBussy can fit a lot in its marketing compartment
Doesn’t need to go fast, but it will fucking go HARD.
Those cheeks were made for clappin’
And that’s just what they’ll do
These cheeks were made for clappin…
One of these days these cheeks are gonna… Clap all over dudes.
Gotta go Fast
truly, why else would they be so voluptuous
If someone suggests “the eBussy is bussin” as a sales pitch, they should probably be let go immediately.
edit: no, no promotions for that low hanging fruit, whomever came up with eBussy should be tried at the Hague.
Or promoted.
As the other commenter said, you mean promoted.

Ah yes. The way-less-sexual-sounding “XBus” Solid rebrand. They should do the XTaxi next!
You guys are impossible to please. Fine! We’re going with our third option: BangBus.

Dirty Mike and the Boyz
I’m gonna sit this one out and let them work out the kinks first. Maybe I’ll get the next model, the XXBus, or the one after that, the XXXBus.
It honestly does look pretty cool
It’s almost exactly what the wife and I want for a little ranch vehicle
Was gonna convert an old truck but this would work even better if it comes to the US (or I bother to import one I guess)

Lb-Ft
FFS, just adopt the metric system already. And “lb” is not a force unit. Also don’t capitalize unit abbreviations unless named after scientists.
Actually pounds are a unit of force
Pounds~newtons
Slugs~ kilograms
Pounds are a unit of money.
lbf(poundforce) is a misnomer, it’s actually the pressure required to stamp the King’s portrait into a £1 coin. Slightly changes with each monarch – or by a lot whenever they switch to cheaper materials because of devaluation. The frequent redefining of poundforce is now a major consequence of Brexit. /sFairly sure there isn’t any money with the king’s face on yet. So we’re still on the Elizabeth standard for now.
It’s confusing, since “pound” is used for both force and mass.
1 lbm is roughly 0.45 kg
1 lbf is the force required to accelerate a 1 slug (32.2 lbm) mass 1 ft/s^2.
I know slugs are just snails without shells, but they don’t need to go faster
Mercifully, g=9.8 everywhere on Earth’s surface, so we use weight interchangeably with mass, but yes, we should weigh ourselves in Newton: “I need to lose 10kg, so I can reach my ideal weigh of 700N” :P

Big nope. It depends not only on height, but also on density of stuff under ground.
It’s understandable that you don’t understand a measurement system you’re not familiar with, but us imperials understand it just fine.
Sure. How much does water in a 1ft × 2ft × 3ft aquarium weigh?
In metric, an equivalent calculation is 30 cm × 60 cm × 90 cm = 3 × 6 × 9 dm^3 = 162 𝑙 ≡ 162 kg of water, and if you’re pedantic, the weight is around 1620 N or closer to 1590 N for 𝑔 = 9.8 m·s-2. All calculated in my head.
A cubic foot is 7.48 gallons, close enough to 7.5. 1 gallon of water is 8.33 lbs ≈ 25/3.
6 * 7.5 = 45 gallons
45 * 25/3 = 375 lbs – easy mental math. Sure, the “accurate” answer is 373.87 lbs, but the aquarium probably isn’t filled with distilled water, perfectly dimensionally accurate, or filled to that exact capacity.

Oh god this is what we mean
Oh just wait until you see imperial hex screws. In metric you get them in screwdriver size relating to mm. US hex screws are like 16/64 of an inch or 5/16 of an apple. And of course they don’t relate to metric at all and you can’t use the same tools.
Or fucking AWG. Higher number means smaller diameter wire, and Americans are afraid of decimal or negative numbers so large diameters are 00, 000 etc. The formula is batshit insane
so people just use a lookup table.Gauge is historically number of passes through gauging machine. With the machine and material in question being different for every single one. We took that and put it to a standard, so it’s super messy and makes no sense.

It’s only arbitrarily easy since water has a density of 1 kg/l in metric, as it was designed to do so. If you happened to know the density of water is 62.2 lb/ft^3 then the equation is roughly 123*60 which is 360 lb. 372 if you can actually paid attention to what common core was trying to teach. If the material was anything other then water the math would be just as difficult to do in imperial or metric.
Metric is still far superior as the harmonized units make density in particular much easier to convert between. About the only thing imperial is better at is thread pitch of screws. I will also maintain that when describing human temperatures for weather Fahrenheit is a superior scale, but that’s just more personal preference and experience then any rational basis.

That’s one where I’d say it’s almost entirely personal preference. Water freezing being at zero is handy because it’s nice to know when there’s ice/snow outside, but that’s also something you could just learn to remember in Fahrenheit too. Doesn’t really matter with that system. Kelvin and Celsius being bros is nice but it’s extremely rare that I use that so eh.
It’s what my pappy used, and his pappy before him, and so on down the line to those patriots that kicked out the British all by themselves with no outside help what-so-ever – especially not from the French.
Also, I don’t know who this “Newton” fella is or why he has a unit named after him, but I strongly suspect he’s a communist and that “the metric system” is a Red plot to undermine our freedom.
I wonder how many people know these numbers. With the level of US education, probably 10%. Not to mention, most quantities will not be exact feet, more like 2’5". Good luck multiplying that, at least 74 cm is easy to type into a calculator.
Anyway, if you ask a European how much a liter of water weighs, 95% will say “a kilo” without much hesitation.

Looks like one of those Soviet loaf vans
In Russian eBussy sounds like “ебаться” meaning “to fuck”. So, checks out.

How can you be in development/marketing and not google the term you are going to name a product beforehand?
I hear you can fit 5 in the back 🤛
You might want to Workshop that name a little bit
