Stagecoach launches UK's first fully-electric bus network in Inverness

Stagecoach has launched the UK's first fully-electric city bus network in Inverness.

The company's 25 new zero-emission Yutong E10 buses are now operating on all city centre routes. The vehicles can operate from morning to evening on a single daily charge, and feature USB charging points at each seat, interior LED lights and contactless payment facilities.

The £10.8m investment was supported by the Scottish Government’s Zero Emission Bus Challenge Fund (ScotZEB). Charging infrastructure was installed at the Inverness depot ahead of the launch.
