Britain’s leading bus manufacturer Alexander Dennis Limited (ADL) presents a selection of the market’s widest range of low and zero emission buses, as well as members of its Plaxton coach range, at Euro Bus Expo 2018.

The Enviro400 continues to be the UK’s favourite double deck bus thanks to its industry-leading reliability and the wide range of specification options available, as shown by two customer vehicles and a demonstrator on the ADL stand. Go South Coast has chosen the eye-catching City body style and SmartPack efficient diesel bus technology for its Bluestar operation in Southampton, while National Express Group picked a high-specification interior and SmartHybrid for its Xplore Dundee fleet.

The award-winning SmartPack and SmartHybrid technologies for efficient diesel buses have been developed in-house by ADL. They feature smart management of alternator and air compressor, engine stop-start technology and electrically-driven cooling fans. SmartHybrid adds a 48V mild hybrid system with long-lasting supercapacitor energy storage. Vehicles with both systems are accredited as Low Emission Buses by the Low Carbon Vehicle Partnership, entitling operators to increased BSOG rates.
