GreenPower Begins Demonstration Tours of its Synapse 72 Electric School Bus in the Greater Toronto Area

GreenPower Motor Company (TSXV:GPB) has planned the first Canadian demonstration tour of its Synapse 72 all-electric school bus.
As quoted in the press release:

The tour will be held in the Greater Toronto Area from September 26 to 29, 2017. The Toronto tour follows the Company’s successful demonstration tour in California, where GreenPower secured 11 commitments for its Synapse 72 all-electric school bus from six school districts in California.
GreenPower will be in Ontario as part of the Electric School Bus Pilot Program, launched by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation. The program provides up to $8 million for the purchase of new electric school buses and charging infrastructure. Eligible school bus operators who apply for the program can receive up to $400,000 for each new electric school bus and the related charging infrastructure to support it.
GreenPower will begin its tour on Tuesday, September 26, which has been scheduled for meetings with the investment community in downtown Toronto, where the Synapse 72 will be on display. On Wednesday and Thursday, September 27 and 28, the Company will be conducting demonstrations with its regional factory representative, City View Bus Sales & Services Ltd., for selected applicants of the pilot program.
The Synapse 72 will also be on display and available for demonstration rides at the electric school bus equipment showcase, which is being held at the Plug ‘N Drive Electric Vehicle Discovery Centre in North York on Friday, September 29. The electric school bus equipment showcase has been organized to offer manufacturers of electric school buses and technology providers an opportunity to display their products to interested parties of the Electric School Bus Pilot Program.
