Bus passengers will see a bit of colour to contrast to the usually dull bus fleet over the next few weeks.
The new Alexander Dennis Enviro 100 will be in service across the island as part of the continued evaluation of alternative fuel options and zero exhaust emissions.
Bus Vannin said: “The 25-seat all-electric vehicle is classified as ‘the big small bus’, affording all the low-floor benefits of its bigger stable mates.
“Its time here ‘in-service’ will be spent analysing how our terrain affects the battery technology available within this type of vehicle.
“The ability to test technologies like this is an important step for the Bus Vannin team in terms of gathering information that will support the future direction of public transport on the Isle of Man.”
