Alexander Dennis Adds Small and Double-Decker Bus to Electric Lineup

Alexander Dennis (ADL) has expanded its zero-emission bus lineup with a new small bus and double-decker, both of which were fully designed and integrated in-house.

ADL's new buses are available for customer delivery from late 2023 and feature a "stunning" new design language with input from students of Coventry University’s sector-leading Automotive and Transport Design course focusing on the vehicle's zero-emission credentials.

ADL says that buses destined for the UK and Ireland will be fully built in Britain. Details and technical specifications will be released over the coming months. 

Internationally, the platform will be tailored to the needs of specific cities, transport authorities, and bus companies in each country. 

“Alexander Dennis continues to lead the transition to zero-emission mobility and this unparalleled investment in the latest zero-emission technology gives operators, transport authorities and councils the freedom to choose from an even wider range of buses,” says President & Managing Director Paul Davies.

“We have always been highly respected for our product innovation, and throughout this difficult period for our industry we have continued to challenge our engineering team to evolve our range. The result will be a brand new fully in-house designed, integrated electric double deck and small bus product giving our customers access to the latest zero-emission vehicle technology from a single, trusted source. Investments can be made safe in the knowledge that everything will continue to receive the first-class aftermarket support that we are renowned for.”
