Manufacturer launches the BYD ADL Enviro400EV at its Scarborough production facility as its senior leadership team recaps 2018 – the most successful year in the company’s history. James Day reports
Alexander Dennis Limited (ADL) has held a ‘state of the nation’ talk at its Scarborough factory, where it provided a detailed recap of the last 12 months across all parts of its business and formally launched the new BYD ADL Enviro400 City EV.
Much of the ADL management team was present at the event, providing a number of detailed presentations. A factory tour was provided by ADL Scarborough General Manager, Alan Atkinson.
At the time of the visit, the news of the ADL sale to NFI Group had not yet been announced.

Stefan Baguette, Group Product Manager, provided a group business update to start proceedings.
