I don’t think an EV double deck exists that can run from first bus in the morning until last bus at night - they don’t in London or Manchester.
150/170 miles is about the maximum without a middle of the day top up.

Hopefully someone can have a word and drive the cost of them down.
Don't want to be paying a premium for something that's not very productive.
Mind, when you mix a vehicle that's not very productive, with a driver who isn't very productive - it's got disaster written all over it.
