BYD D8UR Alexander Dennis Enviro 200EV is seen here at Canning Town, London on service 323 to Mile End.
Deployment of zero-emission buses in London has gathered great pace over the past 18 months and will no doubt continue on that trajectory, although whether all of these vehicles are replacing diesel buses on a 1:1 basis or if slightly more zero-emission examples are required to mitigate range limitations isn't immediately clear.
In the battery-electric double-deck field, the BYD ADL Enviro400EV has thus far dominated, with a few batches of Switch Mobility (formerly Optare) Metrodecker EVs also in use. The Enviro400EV's position is already under major threat from the Wrightbus StreetDeck EV - with a vastly superior maximum battery capacity - and a pending new battery-electric model produced entirely by Alexander Dennis itself, which - it is claimed - will be offered alongside the E400EV. The UK Yutong importer has also long promised a double-decker.
The E400EV's Achilles heel is the seating arrangement at the back of the lower deck, which is very poor owing to the positioning of the drive axle. The StreetDeck EV, at least, does not suffer from that. Here Stagecoach London 14171 (LG71 DSU) departs North Greenwich bound for Erith on a 180 journey. Like an increasing number of new buses, it has rear-view cameras in place of conventional mirrors.

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.

This Skoda 14Tr in the Lithuanian capital was the last of three running together here, presumably taking up service for the afternoon peak. One panel of the front door is open; it gives access only to the closed-off driver's cab and was no doubt so to give some relief from the heat, with air-conditioning only fitted to newer members of the Vilnius bus and trolleybus fleet. A trolleybus depot is close to this location of vehicle 2128 working a 16 journey to Stotis terminal in the centre of the city.

The only trolleybus operation in Norway is in the western city of Bergen, where a single line is in the hands of Solaris Trollino 18 examples of the Skyss operation such as 3002, seen at the Lyngbo terminus. Although trolleybuses may have an uncertain future in general with the rise of battery-electric buses, the line in Bergen was apparently extended not too long ago. These Trollino models have battery power themselves, and are thus able to run where there is no overhead wire.

While China has been closed due to COVID-19 for a long time (only having reopened recently) development has continued at the usual pace while Western visitors were not around to see it. Here in Zhengzhou is a level 4 autonomous bus that is used to serve the large Finance Island manmade development, where it and others run alongside much smaller autonomous shuttle-type vehicles that are also made by Yutong. Sensors can be seen on both front corners.
As it is a level 4 autonomous vehicle it still requires a 'safety driver', but these full-size buses quite happily drive themselves with nobody onboard at the depot area, which is closed off to other traffic. As with all of Zhengzhou's urban bus fleet of several thousand vehicles, these autonomous buses are battery-electric. 5G is used for the necessary communication.
