The front units deliver a combined intensity of 4,100 lumens, while work lights around the roof and sides add 1,000 lumens. The lighting systems can provide a complete 360-degree illumination which can be pretty helpful on mining sites and such.<\/p>\n
When used in severe conditions, the components can quickly get hot and there might be a fire risk. After feedback from the customers, Torsus equipped the Praetorian with a BlazeCut automatic fire suppression system keeping the passengers unharmed in the worst-case scenario. Moreover, the interior is built with fire-resisting materials, which includes the seats as well. Also, just in case, two onboard fire extinguishers are available at all times to suppress any unfortunate incidents.<\/p>\n
Torsus also introduced safety features to comply with the EU standards, such as an automatic door closing system that activates when the vehicle reaches a speed of 2 mph. Other characteristics include an upgraded emergency rescue system and a sensor at the door to keep track of any obstruction while closing it.<\/p>\n
However, the company\u2019s press release did not reveal any information regarding the price of the bus. It is worth mentioning that the previous generation’s starting price was $186,000. Keeping in mind the improvements made to this version, the refreshed model should be slightly more expensive than its predecessor.<\/p>\n
