They will do very well to get Wright-bodied DB300s next year as Wright's DD range will only consist of the StreetDeck and Gemini 3-bodied B5TL. As has been said, hybrid is just not an option unless the government is good enough to put its hand in its pocket and give out some more Green Bus Fund money. If these DDs even materialise, they will be either straight diesel Enviro400s or either of the Wright models. If capacity is key then bet on Wrights as they're claiming 99 passengers can be carried on their Euro 6 'deckers. |
