Solaris Trollino is a series of low-floor trolleybuses designed for public transport, produced since 1999 by the Polish company Solaris Bus & Coach.[1] The power regulation electronics and traction motors are delivered by other companies, such as Škoda Electric, Kiepe Electric, Medcom or Cegelec.[1]
The first prototype was produced in 2001 and ran the first races on the Gdynia road network.[2]
