Electric bus powered by Mn-type lithium ion battery module with 53 kWh was developed. The running test was examined in the local city in Japan. The relation between running time and voltage, current and electric power consumption were investigated. The electric bus was run when the lithium ion battery module was discharged between 380 and 270 V. On one charge, it was also found from the running test that the railcar could run for 74 km. The running performance of electric bus was equivalent to the diesel bus. It was found that the electric bus powered by lithium ion battery was effective for the replace of diesel type bus.
