A trip from Inverness to Ullapool with Scottish Citylink became a little bit more interesting when I spotted that the bus doing the run was a brand new Yutong GTe14 fully electric vehicle. The bus was a demonstrator being utilised by D&E Coaches who operate the 961 service.
The Yutong GTe14 coach incorporates battery packs with a capacity of 563kWh, which is designed to offer an estimated range of between 250 and 300 miles. It is kitted out with 53 seats plus a wheelchair space with a mid-door lift for access. This particular bus has also been used by National Express, FlixBus, Trentbarton, Lothian. Do you know of any other bus operators to have had use of this bus?
Scottish Citylink/D&E Coaches provide two return services daily which coincide with the arrival and departure of the Calmac services to and from Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis. Come along and see how it goes.
