I feel this was a bit of a missed opportunity livery/branding wise for GNE to really shout about ultra clean green public transport and that its them who are delivering it.
Maybe at least some electric-blue variation of the ‘environmental leaves’ could be applied towards the rear with ‘Fully electric, zero emissions’ written within rather than the Euro 6 wording obviously.

Strangely enough, my mother pointed out one of the VOLTRA buses and asked if it was was one of the new electric ones when we were in Newcastle on Saturday.
I didn't even know she knew GNE had electric buses!
