Yutong U11DD in Newport

Newport Bus has taken very well to the Yutong brand and now the majority of its fleet is from that Chinese manufacturer in battery-electric form. Recently it became the first UK operator to take delivery of the U11DD double-decker, which itself debuted in demonstrator form around a year ago. The U11DD is a bus that is as distinctive-looking from the front as it is the back. These are also the first zero-emission double-deckers in Wales and utilise the same driveline as fitted to the E10 and E12 single-deck buses, and at least the TCe12 among the two Yutong battery-electric coaches that are sold in the UK. Here 418 (CK24 AUH) departs from its home city bound for Cardiff on a 30 journey.
