The DOST Hybrid Electric Road Train (Hert) participated in the ?Bayanihan sa Daan Movement? road-sharing exercise on February 7 as it went on a 5.5-kilometer demo run from the SM Mall of Asia grounds to the Luneta Park and back.
Bayanihan sa Daan showcased the idea of sharing the road using highly efficient alternative mass transport system like the DOST Hybrid Electric Road Train, a Filipino developed mass transport vehicle that runs both on diesel fuel and electricity using a 300kVA generator with 260 motor vehicle batteries.
The train is composed of five interlinked air-conditioned coaches that has a capacity of 240 passengers per trip. (Photo courtesy of the Bayanhan sa Daan Movement)
