Miami推进电车系统现代化改造 市议会要求先完成市场研究 目标2035年换装电池电动巴士 估价5600万美元
位于佛罗里达州迈阿密-戴德县的迈阿密市，据《Miami今日报》10月14日报道，Miami市正在评估未来电车服务的采购与管理方式，以推进老化车队现代化并向电动交通转型。市议会9月24日指示市政经理在选定采购方式前先完成一项全面市场研究，内容包括现有车队状况、运营成本、服务水平与未来车辆需求。
据报道，Miami的长期计划是以电池电动巴士逐步取代现有电车，目标2035年完成，估价约5600万美元。2023年12月的《电车效率计划研究》曾对车队状况、替代燃料技术与车辆更新方案作出评估，当时全市共有56辆电车，平均每辆每年行驶约25971英里。
该研究比较方案后推荐电池电动巴士，理由包括成本效益、性能成熟与充电基础设施普及程度较高。Miami电车项目2012年恢复运营，提供免费交通服务；电动有轨电车最早于1906年在该市运行，1940年停运。

Miami Advances Trolley Modernization; Electric Bus Conversion by 2035 Estimated at $56 Million
Miami is a city in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Miami Today reported on October 14 that the City of Miami is evaluating how to procure and manage future trolley services as it modernizes its aging fleet and moves toward electric transit. On September 24 the City Commission directed the city manager to complete a comprehensive market study, covering the existing fleet, operating costs, service levels and projected needs, before selecting a procurement method.
The city's longer-term plan is to replace its trolleys with battery-electric buses by 2035 at an estimated cost of $56 million. A December 2023 Trolley Efficiency Plan Study examined fleet conditions, fuel technologies and replacement options, when the fleet comprised 56 trolleys averaging about 25,971 miles a year each.
That study recommended battery-electric buses over fuel-cell buses, citing cost efficiency, established performance and wider charging infrastructure. Miami reinstated its trolley program in 2012 to provide free transit; electric streetcars first ran in the city in 1906 and ended service in 1940.
