I had a feeling that BYD buses built for Europe would soon come to the UK market and I was right.
But Ebusco and Switch Mobility have gone quiet with UK market
Switch have actually released their EV metrocities into London action recently
Nice, cant wait for them to hit production
all of this is good but they're so ugly man
Me too hopefully the batteries in these buses aren’t shit like the metrodeckers
@@Ali_20175 exactly
@@Ali_20175 yeah
The team that came up with this blurb needs a kick up the arse.
“Kilowatts per hour” not a thing
“Rare metals such as cobalt and nickel” again not a thing. Those aren’t “rare” metals, they’re extracted quite easily. Nickel has been used for centuries and still primarily gets used to make Stainless Steel. They’re also not “rare earth elements” as defined in the periodic table.
Although the front and rear look kinda ugly, it does looks cool interior wise and engine I can't wait to see it in person
Yeah they definitely could have done something nicer for the body. Looks horrendous!
@@ItzHudsthe front looks fine, the back looks hideous
@@BeddingtonNational they both look horrible
@@ItzHuds the back I can understand, the fronts not as bad as u think
@@BeddingtonNational it's straight up horrible, no sugar coating it
It looks so nice
Is this one designed for the UK market?
Yes, they are buying 100's of those
Sodium battery:
Charging time - 15 minutes
Range - 150 km or more
Heard that this is too soon maybe replace the London BorisBus
its not confirmed, BYD want it to happen
@@LJ07EBP i rather want the new gen e400ev to replace the nrm instead of this. Cuz....i think this is kinda ugly.
@@hamburger7478 bro, honestly i see what you mean. For me, its mainly the front thats ugly. The rear looks clean. What makes the front ugly for me is the overuse of black paint that wasnt necessary there. Remember this bus is a prototype so the final product which you will see when batches start getting built might look abit better.
@@LJ07EBP Also the windows.... i hated those rounded windows corners so much.... Looks like a boat on the inside...
@@hamburger7478 😂 true
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I like this bus but I don’t want the design to look like e400 city
The front is so ugly, seems like to be designed by a 10-year old.
prob took some inspirations from the e400city and exaggerated some of its designs. :)
As its built in China its probably built by some too😂
@@Grid56 what is that supposed to mean? Chinese people are very intelligent actually.
@@LJ07EBP Cheap labour, nothing to do with intelligence, though they do have a history of copying other peoles ideas. Check out Top Gear episode showing s%#t knockoff BMW X5 and Minis. Not to mention the billions of tonnes of eBay crap.
Should put wrightbus to shame their electric busses are riddled with issues!
Thought BYD was the one with issues as its Alexander dennis bodied ones were taken out of service due to some fault. However, the one with issues were switch with their metrodecker ev DD's catching fire
Haven't heard to much about issues with the BYD electric busses, wright's are as bad such as hill assist sometimes it's works but then can put the bus into limp home mode unless it's reset correctly.. along with countless other issues!
@@philipbray880 blimey, thought Wrightbus would be 2nd best
@@anacondadoh-victoriousii sadly not even their diesel busess are just as bad small things like fuses to engine issues so not quite as good as wrightbus makes themselves out to be!
@philipbray880 perhaps there is no such thing as a diesel or electric bus made with no problems or faults.
Hell nah wth is this? Bring back the K8SRs.
How low before the battery catches fire ? The BYD electric battery buses in London had to be recalled because they were considered dangerous when the batteries caught fore. Absolute Chinese Rubbish.
Why this ad pushed the blade battery - that and being lfp even less likely catch fire. Unlike diesels/hybrids
@@GaryJohnWalker1 hybrids use electric drive too and both them and diesels have caught fires a few times
So far there hasn't been any BYD electric bus on fire so you are wrong.
This is pure and simple LIE. ALL PSVs have to be safety certified. There have been no announced recalls of electric busses. It just hasn’t happened otherwise the scaremongering press would have been all over it. Just like recent airport fires (not EV btw).
The only busses taken out of service was some coaches in France as I recall, can’t remember the cause AirCon or H2 but I don’t remember.
Cram work
