Last year we won a tender in Suceava and this started the era of our electric vehicles in Romania. Jest Electric has been roaming Romanian roads for 1.5 years now. This year we managed to win another tender for ten more Jest Electric buses and this makes us really proud, because we managed to create an opportunity to expand our business despite the pandemic.
