LTA has already put up Diesel Hybrid/Electric buses ad boards at selected bus stops.

ALL operators will be assigned these buses...

Go-Ahead,Tower Transit & SMRT already assigned 3 Yutong E12 each with another one unit probably goes to TTS..
SBST will definitely get the BYD K9R and the bonus question is who gets the E12DD?

Because they already known electric buses cannot perform as good as diesel counterpart.Citaro Hybrid and B5LH still okay imho..LTA should consider ADL Enviro500 Hybrid and Citaro G Hybrid for airport usage.
Second tt, taken Citaro G in KIX, Euro 6 in EU, fantastic

:lol:

I still remember those days where those Volvo Olympians (with some older buses) have faulty speed limiters... I rode on SBS9526S on 168 back in a 2012 afternoon, speeding down SLE/TPE at 95kmh (timed 0.5km using my watch stopwatch, and did simple math)... maybe the S stands for "Speed" :lol:
