NFI Group (NFI) subsidiary Alexander Dennis received an order for 200 low-emission Enviro400 double-deck buses, the largest bus order in the UK since 2019.
Stagecoach’s 200 new buses will be built in Britain. All are expected to be delivered in 2023.
“We are proud of the continued investment we are making to our fleet with the largest single order for new buses in the UK for several years,” said Sam Greer, Engineering Director, Stagecoach.
“This really shows our commitment to the future prosperity of our communities and to our people, who can all benefit from cleaner transport and a growing bus sector.
“These new double-deck buses will complement the investment we are already making with our electric buses to modernize our fleet in some of Britain’s major towns and cities, enabling reduced pollution and meaning customers can benefit from more comfortable, quieter and newer vehicles on their everyday journeys. We look forward to working with Alexander Dennis to get our new buses into service starting early next year.”
“We are delighted to continue to support Stagecoach in making buses across the UK cleaner and greener,” said Paul Davies, President & Managing Director, Alexander Dennis.
“Our low-emission Enviro400 is a tried and tested product that combines efficiency with high passenger capacity. Robust and easy to maintain, the 200 new buses will integrate seamlessly into Stagecoach’s fleet.
“After the challenges both operators and manufacturers in the UK bus industry have faced in the last years, it is a heartening step on the road to recovery to see significant volumes of vehicles being ordered again by the country’s largest bus operator, Stagecoach.”
