I like (the exterior) of the Optare DD Electrics (on the C3). Apparently they have a larger capacity than the BYD/ADL ones as well. Annoyingly, a lot of the routes I use most are converting to electric using the BYD/ADL buses. I wish I lived in a Tower Transit area! I'll be trying out the Go Ahead batch due for the 200 where i'll then compare it to the SEe, the only other electric I've been on. Whichever sounds better will be my favourite. lol

Electrics do not do it for me. NRM is probably the newest bus that will do it for me. Hearing it at the maximum speed on the N8 on the A102 or Eastern Avenue is the business. #nostalgia I like the sound of the LT when it's in pure electric mode. However, I'm told they've been modified where the engine runs nearly all the time now.
