UK transport giant Stagecoach has launched its first fully electric city bus network.
It said the Yutong E10 buses could run from morning to evening on a single daily charge, and there was no noise or vibration from the engine.It is also planning a wider rollout of 159 electric buses across its UK services.Charging facilities have been installed at the company's Inverness depot.
Stagecoach Highlands managing director, David Beaton, said he was incredibly proud that the company's first fully-electric city bus network was in Inverness.
How do I go viral so that I can find a few people with even 8mins of free time in this pool of 400 million to read a few stories? Pls don't judge without reading, I am trying to find little help through my stories and a book for my family. Link in pinned tweet. Too much to ask?
The first? Many, many cities the world over had (and some still have) all electric buses.
