Ballymena bus maker Wrightbus has signed a deal to supply 60 of its zero-emission hydrogen buses to a German operator.
The deal, for an undisclosed sum, has been struck with Cologne company Regionalverkehr Köln GmbH (RVK), which will take delivery of the Kite Hydroliner single deck buses over the next two years.
Wrightbus said the buses will be the first left-hand drive vehicles which the company has exported since JCB heir Jo Bamford bought the firm out of administration in 2019.
