Chinese brand Yutong has been successful in the UK with its range of single-deck battery-electric single-deckers, with reviews suggesting that they are highly reliable, energy-efficient, liked by drivers, and supported by strong back-up from dealership Pelican Bus and Coach.
The next logical step was always a double-decker, and that has materialised in the U11DD. The first to be built for the UK is seen here at Yutong's factory in China prior to shipment. It has now arrived, been repainted silver, and is about to enter demonstration service. A second example, in the same red livery as seen here, is also expected very soon. It, too, will be used as a demonstrator. Two of the type are already on order for Newport Transport, where they will join E9L, E10 and E12 single-deck models.
Battista "Pinin" Farina, the famous Italian cachbuilder always dreamt of creating a car bearing his name. In March 2019, Automobili Pininfarina unveiled the Battista. The Battista will be an all-electric hyper GT car to clients from 2020. 90 years after Battista founded Carrozzria Pininfarina, the Battista will be launched as Italy's most powerful and fastest car. Paolo Pininfarina, Michael Perschke, CEO of Automobili Pininfarina and Mahindra & Mahindra Chairman, Anand Mahindra, confirm that the limited-edition hypercard Battista will be the fastest and most powerful car ever designed and produced in Italy. Power and torque equate to 1.900 hp and 2.300 Nm respectively, meaning the Battista has the potential to accelerate to 100 km/h in less than 2 seconds, faster than a Formula 1 car, and break the 250 mph top speed barrier - all with a potential zero emissions range of over 300 miles. No more than 150 Battistas will be available from late-2020.

A newish concept for Transport for London is the Superloop, which is a collection of orbital (and one or two not-so-orbital) limited stop services in the capital. As would be expected with the move towards a zero-emission bus fleet in London, some of these services are running with battery-electrics. The SL3 between Thamesmead and Bromley North is in the hands of Stagecoach London, which uses Alexander Dennis Enviro400EV double-deckers on it. Seen here is 80407 (SK25 AOG) in Abbey Wood.

"The Renault range has now been completely renewed and upgraded with a spectrum of complementary models, each one of which has its own assertive identity. With the TREZOR, we have pursued this renewal by introducing a new lifecycle sequence. This concept car is the fruit of a freedom of expression and prepares the way for the trends we are likely to see in our upcoming vehicles. These trends fall into two categories: French Design and Easy Life."

The Hammerhead Eagle i-Thrust (among other names) is the second electric car that Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond made in the Electric Car Challenge. It was built with the intention of making a decent electric car, not just an overpriced car that's about as attractive as a baboon's bottom. The only problem with being the best looking electric car is that it would have to be better looking than the Tesla, which most would argue it is not. The Hammerhead Eagle i-Thrust had no problems in the price department but was designed by Jeremy and described by Top Trumps as looking like a 'slow-moving outside lavatory'. Its predecessor was named Geoff. This time, it was armed with more batteries and a diesel generator to recharge said batteries. While the car was still slow, it was considerably faster than Geoff and in a drag race it easily beat a cyclist, a runner and a G-Wiz. The exterior was still the same, but with a sprung "push bar" in the front, for protection during crashes. Richard put on narrow tyres from a Citroën 2CV to reduce friction. The generator that James installed would often fill the car with exhaust gases. This would eventually kill one of The Stig's cousins, Janet Stig-Porter. In a wind tunnel, the car was so aerodynamically poor that it slid across the test area and we are told that it crashed into the fans at one end.
It travelled to Goodwood for the Festival of Speed 2010.
At the end of the 'testing' of the car, Stig dropped it off at the Autocar H.Q. for their view. The car was badly criticised for having bad braking, handling and the worst car design ever. It did, however, get one half-star better than the G-Wiz.

In Chesterfield bus/coach station Derbyshire a stranger in town and far away from home. This was originally an Alexander Dennis E40 Enviro400hybrid that was later converted to electric power by Magtec of Rotherham. The bus was at the facility for, as the driver said "had its gubbins stripped out and overhauled". With said 'gubbins' replaced the bus was out on a full day trial around South Yorkshire and Derbyshire, with a stop off in the bus/coach station for a while.

Undoubtedly one of the most difficult parts of road transport to decarbonise is the coach market, which is reflected in there being just two such battery-electric models on the UK market. Both are from Yutong, with the larger of the pair being the tri-axle GTe14 as seen here.
While built in China, the GTe14 is otherwise an entirely western vehicle, with the latest examples including a Tesla-esque tablet as the dashboard binnacle. Over 600kWh of energy storage can be had, with a claimed range of over 300 miles; charging at 600kW is possible via twin CCS2 connections (and where sufficient power is available). Naturally, this all comes at a cost, but it is a clear indication that European coach manufacturers have a job-and-a-half in hand if they are to keep up over coming years.
Scottish start-up Ember is by far the biggest customer for battery-electric coaches in the UK so far. It began with the smaller TCe12 but has graduated to the GTe14, of which a large number are in service and on order.
Ember's business model is built entirely around zero-emission and, at least from what was seen here, that is delivering; this GTe14 in Dundee left with a full load bound for Edinburgh. It is SG24 UJJ.

Mercedes opened a new chapter in the story of drive technology for light commercial vehicles with the first battery-electric van. Owing to its zero-emission drive it is ideally suited for use in restricted-entry areas, as it gives off no exhaust gases and is extremely quiet. A further advantage : load space and payload are not in any way reduced.
