https://elisabethbell.com/0gkh38wz20 Foothill Transit first demonstrated the Enviro500EV on its downtown Los Angeles routes in October 2016. It said the customer response was overwhelmingly enthusiastic.

https://musiciselementary.com/2024/03/07/1zt3dtf Building on the 4.1m-high model which Foothill Transit trialled, the new Enviro500EV double-deckers will replace two 12-year-old CNG buses. With a capacity for 80 passengers, they will carry more than twice the number of people which are currently transported in the existing CNG buses (38), despite occupying the same road foot print.

The vehicles will use the E2 battery, manufactured by Proterra. Last year, the same battery system broke the world record for distance travelled by an electric bus on a single charge, when the ‘Catalyst’ bus managed a distance of 1,101.2 miles.

“Deploying the Enviro500EV will be transformative for Los Angeles and for the United States,” said Doran Barnes, Executive Director of Foothill Transit.

“As congestion and local air quality challenges remain top of every transit authority’s agenda, we’re excited to raise the bar in Los Angeles County with transit pioneer, Foothill Transit, and heavy-duty electric vehicle technology innovator, Proterra.”
