The first electric BYD Enviro 400EV double deckers entered service in Coventry on Sunday 30th August. The initial order for ten buses in the West Midlands city, follows an order of nineteen in Birmingham, which first saw service from July 2020.
Similar to their Birmingham counterparts, these ten carry four distinct branding artwork designs. The most colourful of which are E025 and 'Donna-Louise' illustrated here with "Bus travel doesn't cost the earth".
Advertisement identities are as follows:
"Clear blue sky thinking" - E020/021/022/023
"Power to the people of Coventry" - E024/028
"Bus travel that doesn't cost the earth" - E025/027

A further Swiss city to operate the Hess Swisstrolley is Lausanne, which has a fleet in both two- and three-section form.

Photographed on its second week on the road is E022 'Ayva-Mai', which is one of four of the type carrying the "Clear blue sky thinking" branding between the decks. The light blue chosen in Coventry contrasts nicely with the Platinum style, two tone grey selected for Enviro 400EVs of National Express. There are now twenty nine BYD Alexander-Dennis Electric double deckers operating with the company in 2020 with hopefully more to follow in future years!

I have finally managed to grab some decent shots of an experimental electric-drive battery powered carbon fibre bus that lives local to me.
RX15HSU is a 'Bristol Superlight' built by the Frazer-Nash Research company based in Farnborough, Hants. The bus was first registered on 28/08/2015 and I've been after a decent shot of it ever since!
Their concept bus is kitted out to B27D layout and weighs in at just 3.5 tonnes, its revenue weight listed as 4840kg. It carries a 1.0L engine which is used to recharge the lithium batteries and as such the bus is marketed as ultra low emission / zero emission capable.
I grabbed some shots of the bus when it was out on a demonstration run on 02/03/2017.
A collection of cracking photos of this bus in St.Moritz is here: www.fotoswiss.com/-/galleries/reports-reportagen/ebus-by-...

The fastest electric car on the market
Elegant, electrically powered sports roadster by the American marque Baker, which at the time was one of the largest producers of electric city cars in the US. With this model Baker tried to make his electric cars look like the petrol-powered competition. The radiator however had no function and the batteries were located in the front under the ‘bonnet’. The floor-mounted dashboard was made up of one Volt and one Ampere gauge. The battery charger can also be seen here.
Walter Baker started working with electric motorcars as early as 1893 and set up his own company in 1899. Although he was successful initially, the popularity of the electric car waned due to the rapid development of the internal combustion engine. The invention of the electric starter, for example, made cranking a thing of the past. Baker halted the production of electric cars in 1916.

Volvo BZL is seen here at Sheraton Grand Hotel, Edinburgh participating in the 2023 ALBUM Conference.
The Circulator network in Washington, DC is a collection of low-speed, urban services that charge the princely sum of $1 for a ride. Such operating characteristics leaves Circulator as an ideal landscape for battery-electric buses, and so quite a number of such Proterra models can be seen. Here is fleet number 3012, a BE40 model dating from 2017. It is running the Lincoln Memorial routes and is turning from Columbus Circle into Louisiana Avenue NW here. Behind is Washington Union Station.
