A fleet soon 100% electric
In December 2021, tests of an electric shuttle on the red train circuit had been done and they proved more than conclusive.
A year later, at the beginning of the 2022-2023 winter season, two new electric shuttles appeared on the same circuit of the Red Train.
In addition to the much quieter driving, the power of the batteries of these shuttles allow Valbus drivers to turn on the circuit for a whole day and keep about 50% of the load even in periods of extreme cold.
After a winter season and a summer season running on the Red Train circuit, Val d'Isère Téléphériques has acquired 4 new electric shuttles for the 2023-2024 winter season.
You can find them on the Yellow Train circuit (from the roundabout of the slopes to Manchet), on the Blue Train (from the roundabout of the slopes to Club Med) and on the Red Train from November 30th 2024.
