On June 24, 2024,the opening ceremony of the first electric tourist bus "Ankai A9" running between Hong Kong and Shenzhen was officially held at the "Sheung Shui-Wenjindu Cross-border Bus Terminal" in Hong Kong. The opening of Ankai A9 means that there is another possibility for Shenzhen and Hong Kong citizens to have a two-way trip. As the protagonist of this launch ceremony, "Ankai A9" is a high-end model for high-end passenger transport, business travel, group commuting and other markets, which can fully adapt to Hong Kong's geographical environment, climatic characteristics and charging facilities.

In recent years, due to its characteristics of energy saving, low carbon, and environmental protection, and not being restricted by city road rights on short and medium distance tourist routes, electric tourist buses have gradually become popular in the market. Ankai A9 battery system is equipped with a water-cooled unit, and its battery is durable. The high-capacity battery is equipped with a dual-gun charging port, which can travel up to 430 kilometers on a single charge. Compared with diesel buses, Ankai A9 greatly reduces operating costs while providing a long cruising range.

The popularity of Ankai A9 is also due to its high-end ecological tourism brand image in terms of appearance design and performance. It features a fashionable design with smooth lines and contours, and a refreshing color scheme, showcasing its environmental aesthetics. Additionally, Ankai A9 provides an excellent riding experience. Given Hong Kong's mountainous terrain, its double A-arm independent air suspension effectively reduces vehicle vibration frequency and mitigates the bumpy feeling caused by uneven roads. Since Ankai A9 is purely electrically driven without engine vibration, and incorporates shock absorption, insulation, and evacuation technologies, it significantly reduces vehicle vibration and interior noise, achieving a silent cockpit effect and providing passengers with the most comfortable riding experience.

Ankai electric A9 meets the environmental requirements of Shenzhen and Hong Kong cities and scenic spots, leading the way in low-carbon travel. It allows more and more Hong Kong citizens to experience the local culture of Shenzhen, while also making travel via Ankai pure electric bus a fashionable way to travel, driving continued growth in cross-border tourism and accelerating the integration of urban life in Shenzhen and Hong Kong.
