Alexander Dennis has secured an order for 58 next-generation Enviro400EV zero-emission buses from the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority. These buses will enhance the city’s fleet, operated by a commercial bus service before transitioning to a franchising model in 2026. Funded partially by the Department for Transport's ZEBRA 2, these buses boast top-tier energy efficiency, facilitating low operation costs. Built in Britain, this initiative not only emphasizes environmental benefits but will also generate significant employment, creating 1,900 jobs and 60 apprenticeships locally.
"The Enviro400EV is part of Alexander Dennis' next generation of zero-emission buses... it has been designed to maximize its environmental benefits and testing certified by the Zemo Partnership has confirmed its best-in-class energy requirement of only 0.67kWh/km over the UK Bus Cycle, alongside a market-leading 97% grid-to-wheel charging efficiency."
"All 58 Enviro400EV for the Liverpool City Region will be built in Britain, supporting 1,900 UK skilled jobs and more than 60 apprenticeships at Alexander Dennis, as well as further significant employment at the manufacturer's 8,000 suppliers across the United Kingdom."
