Yes, there's much discussion about these on Facebook right now.There are apparently several right hand drive dual door (TfL spec?) red double deckers currently at Bristol docks. They carry BYD lettering on the front, but clearly not bodied by ADL. I wonder if these might be BYD 'integral' vehicles and, if so, what this means for the BYD/ADL partnership?Especially now ADL have their own fully in-house EV chassis range.

They are definitely BYD integrals, apparently with technological improvements. The E400 City bodywork is no longer compliant for TfL work because of the frontal geometry and maybe ADL are unwilling to graft the E400EV front onto the design.
What's surprised me and others is how they were kept under wraps. And which operator they're for.
