perfect combination of old nostalgic double deckers of Mumbai and the ones in London. absolutely love it
I Saw this Beauty in Mumbai ♥️♥️
Proud to be working at this company!!
Hyderabad also having these one's
Konsa department ?
Nostalgia. Reminds me when we used get so excited to seat on the top deck
Switch mobility mai security ka kaam karta hoo mai...I'm proud ki switch itna aage jaraha hai 😊😊😊
I traveled in this DD bus yesterday and one thing i found was that conductors don't allow standing passengers on the upper deck. You are allowed to go to the upper deck only if a seat is vacant.
That makes sense
Old beauty of Bombay with new twist
Another gem from Ashok Leyland ❤
Speed breakers are going to be its kryptonite. That ground clearence worries me. 😮
After seeing those high volt wires I am worried in rainy season 😢
That's y it has air suspension to uplift and make ground clearance higher 😒😒
Thank me later
speed. Because I'm not the problem by any means, it's does creators that form after monsoon.
Also the waterline in monsoon will be above its battery area, so need to see what that would be
Ground clearance looks small because of it's massive size . Otherwise it should be high enough .
Because the centre of gravity is very good then it's not a problem bro...
Woooww...This double decker bus is so modern. Full of tech....I have been in local buses in my city Bhubaneswar and it is good to have a ride, but this bus is really great.
I took this bus for Heritage ride in April. My daughter liked it so much that the attendant were happy to watch and care her throughout the ride.
Great suspension, good stability for the height, large tinted glasses with panoramic views, decent build quality and the good conditioned SoBo roads all made for that ₹150 per person 45 mins ride. The bus is silent inside, well maintained temperature, working cameras, crew was supportive. I liked this bus more than the Mumbai heritage buildings being announced on the way.
In my area (Chennai, Tiruvottriyur) Ashok Leyland manufacturing plant is there so they tested this switch ev in my area
The monsoon season will be the real test of these buses. Hope they survive the road conditions and water logging
Hope they have taken care of Mumbai's monsoon roads.
What about wheelchair ramp for disabled people uk buses has that
Autobus India
😂
Another wall for the advertisement 😅
The question is whether the electric battery pack area would be able to withstand the inevitable flooding of the roads in Mumbai every year.
the route choosen rarely floods
I really appreciate the fact that the video is made in English but also make these videos in Marathi, Hindi and other Indian languages. This is just a friendly suggestion so that every citizen can understand the content that's shared.
That front wheel was almost in air when cornering!
This was first introduced in Hyderabad and running on Hyderabad roads from long time ago.
No brother, first vehicle launch in Mumbai....
18 August 2022...🎉
That gear lever and the smooth gearbox in the BEST busses
Building the bus body is a craft and art work which will take sometime for Indian bus bodybuilders. The body works is not at par with that of European buses. Also while picking the color one needs to know that you have to pick the colors shade which is low on chromatic scale so that it doesn’t hit your eyes and senses. It’s not just about picking any color or red color but ensuring the color is not very bright to the eyes and picking color shed low on chromatic spectrum.
Can it run through waterlogged road of Mumbai during monsoon ?
Loved this video..!! Very thoughtful one
After seeing those high volt wires I am worried in rainy season 😢
Damn you Leyland!!.. awesome!
Great review Shapur sir👍...enjoyed every bit of this iconic vehicle review ❤
Thanks.
Would have been nice if BEST had retained the blood red color. The one on this bus seems to have a faded shade that would soon look old ... even when new. As in London, BEST is best with the original red.
Please don’t discontinue the old one I still love that
Hope this comes to Bengaluru!
That's bus not world level standard.!
bangluru sould incrduct VOLVO 's BZL DD.. Electric
Everything is great, except those seats. They should have introduced better luxury seats with head rest, arm rest n individual USB port like in UAE.
This mass transport for Mumbai, leather seats won't last a month. These seats look good that they get spoiled easily
Seats are good enough for a public transport vehicle
You have driven it without payload at top and bottom Shapur, that’s why you felt it stable at corners.
Beautiful bus
And, no thoughts went into adding 360 cam view. It's not just about internal cameras, the streets are always crowded and flooded with jaywalkers, and 360 view camera is must have for a country with cattles on streets.
Rather ordering so many they should have introduced iterations to understand real time problems and then bring out huge order for the best variant fitting with all the needs
We need this in Bangalore😍
All important question: what's the range?
What about battery short circuit in flood like situation in roads?
Who else is waiting for Independence Day spl drive review of Mahindra ALSV 😍😍😍 KALYANI M4 was ❣️ now mahindra ALSV should be driven😍
What happens during a monsoon season... how will the undercarriage hold up during water under neath etc..
And the main question arrives.
This is Mumbai, can it SWIM?!
Why doesn't the driver get surround camera view?
This bus has more space than a luxury house in Mumbai. People should just buy one and live in it.
Excellent 👌🏼👍🏼❤
it looks beautiful
Hope they keep it clean and glossy.
What about the road water hitting battery pack in rain
Hyderabad has same Ev double decker buses which are operational now.
Hey ... I saw Leyland logo on steering wheel .. any connection between leyland n switch ?
We have same bus in ahmedabad and it runs so well on all kind of rough roads.....
Even TSRTC going to start these soon in Hyderabad
What's the real world range with passengers in mumbai traffic....??
Nice one
Imagine this bus's underwater battery pack in Mumbai floods
Is there any route in Sounth Mumbai on which this bus runs?
Seeing this since 3 months in Hyderabad
What is the range of the bus ?
I'm worrying about the tyres; these are similar to regular buses, but they are going to carry double of regular load
What happens when Mumbai gets waterlogged. As battery and other electric are located so low these will be quickly out of commission.
Good job chennai switch. And pune
Already in bangalore switch electric buses providing service
What is the range
5:29, is it just me or the bus seems tilted to the left?
I was going to buy Activa but this vehicle intrigued me and now I'm confused what to buy.
Finally govt is doing something about public transportation. Current buses are of stone age.
fan is running no AC??
Please give a try on KSTRC Airwat once
Bahar se jitni lal hain utni andar se bhi ho jayegi
Amazing
Why is the steering from layland
How come not a low floor?
Haven't seen any auto channel show me driving a bus
Switch EiV22 will not put out any "LOCAL EMISSIONS"?
With such a big battery, all of mumbais roads will be 95% potholes
Add some efficient solar for extra juice
What about the Mumbai flash floods?
Why am I watching bus videos at 7am????
Yes, this is made in Ch…
not China. Chennai
Ashok Leyland 🎉🎉
Water wading, Mumbai being a monsoon enemy for roads
Did I just watch complete review of a bus?
Think about Mumbai monsoon
Nowadays Chennai manufactures many things
When Mumbai floods, these batteries will short. Also, has it been tested against Mumbai's speed brakers??
Bus looks cool but if only ppl keep it clean plus
Nice , ,
This bus design has been making the Switch brand look really bad in the UK, no wonder their sales have been tanking. Nice to see that the Empire is still somewhat alive.
Bit surprised that Optare/Switch has approved the use of their brand on a non-wheelchair accessible bus of which they probably didn't even design.
Made in chennai ❤
What will be scenario in heavy monsoon ? When roads will become rivers…😃as batteries are underneath…
Why is the seatbelt so slack? Already modified to suit local drivers (Taxi driver style)
Dibs on the front seat on top deck.
First Ban speed beakers in India! And fix traffic problems like maintaining vehicles spaces at respecting lanes.
Hmm. They better have a speed limit cause I see a huge roll over risk
Why it has Ashok Leyland steering ?
Ev brand of Ashok leyand
Switch mobility is the ev subsidiary of Ashok Leyland
Switch is a subsidiary of Ashok Leyland.... basically their electric division
Switch Mobility parent company is Ashok leyland
It has partnered in India with Ashok Leyland
By 2025, All Busses in india should become EV. By 2025 All Trucks should Run on Hydrogen.
All sates and centre should make a Policy to achieve it with multiple Giga factories & network.
It’s should’ve had rear wheel steering. Good product nonetheless.
Switch city public transport to ev bus soon
Going all electric.
EV brand of Ashok Leyland(Hinduja Group)
