Empowering Sustainability Milestone: 1,000,000 Hours of Work Achieved Worldwide Powered by ELECTRIC

Driving the Future: Urban-Sweeper S2.0 and Pony P3.0 Revolutionize Work Across the Globe

Payerne, Switzerland, December 12th, 2023 - Boschung is proud to announce a groundbreaking achievement as our customers globally surpass 1,000,000 hours of work using our Powered by ELECTRIC vehicles. Since the introduction of our first electric vehicle in 2018, the Urban-Sweeper S2.0 and Pony P3.0 have been at the forefront of sweeping, washing, snowplowing, de-icing, and more, releasing 0 (zero) emission.


Key Achievements:

  • Carbon footprint reduction: Beyond efficiency and performance, our electric vehicles represent a significant reduction in carbon emissions. Over the course of a million hours, the impact is staggering. With an average consumption of 8 liters per hour, and considering 2.7 kg of CO2 per liter of diesel, we’ve successfully prevented the release of 21,600,000 kg of CO2 into the atmosphere since 2018. The use of electric vehicles in our operations has played a pivotal role in our mission to minimize environmental impact.

  • Cost-Efficiency: In addition to the significant environmental benefits, the transition to electric vehicles has proven to be economically advantageous. Not only do our electric vehicles offer lower maintenance costs, but they also provide a more sustainable and economically viable business model. This commitment to efficiency extends beyond the reduction of carbon emissions, ensuring that our customers enjoy both ecological and economic advantages in their day-to-day operations

  • Human-Friendly Operations: One of the often-overlooked advantages of our electric vehicles lies in their enhenced operation environment. The Urban-Sweeper S2.0 and Pony P3.0 not only excel in environmental sustainability but also contribute to the well-being of the people involved in their operation. With significantly reduced vibration and noise levels compared to traditional counterparts, our electric vehicles provide operators with a more comfortable and pleasant working environment. Furthermore, these low noise levels benefit the citizens of cities and municipalities where our vehicles operate, creating a quieter and less intrusive urban landscape. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond environmental impact, fostering a harmonious coexistence between our technology and the communities it serves.

Looking Ahead:

‘Achieving 1,000,000 hours is significant. What’s especially gratifying is seeing the P3.0 contribute to these hours in winter operations, showcasing the resilience of the Boschung electric utility vehicles in snowy conditions. This achievement reaffirms our commitment to sustainable solutions year-round.’ stated Rino Reusser, Managing Director, Marcel Boschung AG, Business Unit Vehicles.

As we celebrate this remarkable milestone, Boschung remains committed to advancing sustainable solutions for the future. We are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of innovation, ensuring that our customers continue to experience the best in efficiency, performance, and environmental responsibility.
