Bus Manufacturer News & Discussion

China has world leading electric vehicle technology, plus copious supplies of the necessary minerals to make vehicle batteries, so it's going to be very hard for western manufacturers to compete with them. Western car manufacturers are already squealing about this.

Seconded. We've had Yutongs in Leicester for a few years now, they're great. Warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
We've also got a load of recently introduced Wright electrics too. They're very nice as well, but they're really cold in the winter and no air con for the summer.
Shame, as i'm all for "Buy British", but the passenger experience on the Yutongs is superior.

I believe the Yutongs undergo final fitting out (including batteries) at Pelican Engineering in Yorkshire.
