Really shocked at this bus just seen in their Inverness operations Stagecoach has just bought two large batches of new single deckers, 12 Volvo/MCV Evoras and 25 Yutongs 😱
Is Stagecoach’s loyalty with ADL now starting to wain (maybe their new owners don’t like them) or are they just not ordering with them at the moment because of the heavy backlog of orders?
Makes me very intrigued to see what they’ll end up ordering for their London operations as I just thought it’ll be a dead cert to go with ADL! Not so sure now

I believe Dunfermline and Perth are getting E200EVs following Kilmarnock. So maybe Yutongs were available sooner.
55 E400EVs have just been ordered for Oxford, due between Sept 23 and March 24.

There are also 200 diesel Enviro400 MMCs on order for 2023 delivery, to be distributed amongst several subsidiaries.

Stagecoach has turned to Volvo for its new electric vehicles for Cambridge Park & Ride services. Some of the first Volvo BZL EVs to enter passenger service in the UK commenced on the Park & Ride services to Madingley, Trumpington and Newmarket Road from 14th May. They are due to enter service on the Milton and Babraham routes in June. Bodied by MCV (H42/19F), there will be thirty in total (86001-86030). Photo of 86005 (not mine): flic.kr/p/2oAD9rC

11581-11602 are almost certain to be split between Chichester & Portsmouth - for the 700 Coastliner

11581-11602 are now entering service with Stagecoach South on the Portsmouth-Littlehampton section of the 700. They carry a new dedicated Coastliner 700 variation of the new corporate livery style, which will also be applied in due course to the older Enviro400 MMCs which operate the Brighton-Littlehampton-Wick section. Photo of 11602 (not mine): flic.kr/p/2oK6WzERouteOne article on the rollout of the new vehicles: www.route-one.net/deliveries/stagecoach-coastliner-700-to-gain-22-new-enviro400s/The Manchester Hyde Road vehicles are also now entering service.

I've only used it twice and only between Worthing & Brighton but both times, the single decker and double deckers were busy

The only issue with that is that's 10 more buses than the 16 currently needed for the 242 - however, if you include the D7 (I know it's been earmarked for MCV's), 82049-74 adds up perfectly including two spares for the 242 and one for the D7
