New electric buses

The Red Arrow BYD / Alexander-Dennis Enviro200EV buses have
iron-phosphate batteries at the rear and in the roof pod, which also
incorporates the aircon unit. The driveline comprises two 90kW wheel-hub
motors and water cooling system plus regenerative braking system.
There are also five BYD double-deck battery buses in (intermittent) use on route 98.
Thanks, that's interesting. Were the additional batteries in the roof pod
added to increase the range? They sound like an afterthought.
