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.

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.

Entry into service of Metro-branded battery-electric buses in the Liverpool City Region started a few weeks ago. The opening introduction involved the Wrightbus StreetDeck Electroliner fleet at the Gillmoss depot of Stagecoach Merseyside, and over the last few days the first of the Alexander Dennis Enviro400EV models have now also hit the road.
There are 55 of the latter, all of which have been built for well over a year and stored by the manufacturer. The reason, as is often the case, was waiting on completion of charging infrastructure. That is now all done, and on the day that this shot was taken, 12 of the Enviro400EV fleet had carried passengers. Seen here is 80519 (SN26 XXZ), on its first day in service. As with the StreetDeck Electroliners, while it may currently be a Stagecoach bus, franchising awaits for Gillmoss, and hence it could move operator later.
The Enviro400EVs were part-funded by the government's Zero Emission Bus Regional Areas scheme, and hence carry small 'funded by UK Government' decals at the rear. The StreetDeck Electroliners do not.

While the Wrightbus StreetDeck Hydroliner fleet operated by First Aberdeen may be the higher profile of the Granite City's zero-emission bus stock, Stagecoach Bluebird has quietly been introducing a greater number of BYD ADL Enviro400EV battery-electric double-deckers to its operation there. The driveline technology in these buses is proven stuff from BYD and the Enviro400EV in this format seems to be a reliable and competent performer wherever it is deployed. Here Stagecoach 14054 (LG22 AWF) approaches journey's end at Union Square bus station, the obligatory oil industry supply vessels that are a fixture of this part of Aberdeen visible behind it.
While the BYD ADL Enviro400EV may be a reliable performer, it does have a couple of awkward spots; the seating layout at the rear of the lower deck is poor, and weight - at well over 13,000kg unladen - is rather 'solid'. Are those among the reasons why Alexander Dennis will debut its own, entirely in-house Enviro400EV later this year? Who knows. The relationship with BYD will continue despite that, however.
BYD D8UR Alexander Dennis Enviro 200EV is seen here at Buchanan Bus Station on Service X8 to Pollok Circular.

- Restoration inspired by the limited-edition ’Jogging’
- Attractively finished, with large sunroof and leather interior
- Can be registered in the Netherlands
A legend that was an inseparable part of the French automotive scene from the 1960s to the 1990s, Renault’s first front-wheel drive car, the Renault 4, introduced a rear tailgate, long-travel suspension and an excellent load capacity. In 2021, to celebrate the model’s 60th anniversary, the manufacturer had five cars converted to electric power.
It chose versions symbolising the model, which were completely restored by the staff at the Collection before being sent to EV Europe, a Dutch specialist which carried out the conversion, replacing the petrol engine by an electric motor and installing the batteries. The motor is directly connected to the gearbox, which is locked in third, with an electrical inverter providing reverse gear. A screen has been added on the left-hand side of the dashboard to display the information specific to the electric powertrain. The car produces about 30bhp and has a range of approximately 100km.
This Renault 4 has been rebuilt in the style of the ‘Jogging’ limited edition which came out in 1981 and was aimed at young buyers; only 5000 units were produced, and they are impossible to find nowadays. Finished in white with blue accents, it has a large blue sunroof and superb leather upholstery in the same colour. The tailgate has a ‘Renault 4, 60 Anniversary’ logo and the odometer is reading just over 1000km, doubtless the distance it has covered since being converted. The car can only be registered in the Netherlands. This car offers the ease of use of an EV and is sure to appeal to Renault 4 enthusiasts with a liking for its limited-edition models.
Bus franchising is coming to the Liverpool City Region, and with it this yellow and grey Metro livery. The first franchise contracts will commence in autumn 2026 in St Helens and Wirral. As is obligatory with a franchising scheme, many new buses have been ordered in both battery-electric and diesel form. The former are made up of double-decks from Alexander Dennis and Wrightbus, with 108 in total due for use from Gillmoss depot.
Many of those buses have been built for a long time, with infrastructure work at what is currently a Stagecoach Merseyside operating centre having precluded their deployment until now. The 58 Enviro400EV examples have been part-funded by the Zero Emission Bus Regional Areas scheme, while the 50 StreetDeck Electroliners are fruits of the City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement money. After a long wait, the StreetDecks began entering service in week commencing 8 June. Here 82416 (MW26 XZA) is seen approaching Liverpool One bus station on an 86C journey.

No doubt over the coming years this livery will become as prominent in the Liverpool City Region as Bee Network yellow has in Greater Manchester. Here 82412 (MW26 XYV) has just started an 82 journey from Liverpool South Parkway to Liverpool One in the city centre and is on Horrocks Avenue in Garston.
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.
