The Enviro500EV CHARGE is also Buy America-compliant with Altoona testing scheduled for later this year. 

Paul Soubry, President and CEO of NFI, commented,

“Today marks the very first launch of an ADL vehicle at our Vehicle Innovation Center, and we are excited to have an ADL zero-emission bus join our lineup for North America. When we acquired ADL in May 2019, we knew that ADL’s strong international growth agenda and double deck bus platform would mean an exciting road ahead—today’s launch brings together both of these elements.”

Paul Davies, President and Managing Director of Alexander Dennis Limited, added,

“The Enviro family is the world’s best-selling double deck bus with over 18,000 sold around the globe. Today we add a milestone as we unveil our first ever battery-electric, three-axle, high-capacity double deck bus designed specifically for the North American market. We are very excited by the positive feedback already received from transit agencies who have trialed this vehicle and look forward to delivering zero-emission service with our double decks across North America.”
