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?

pls do wait for official press release

SBST has the Citaro Hybrid

The 12.8s will be already for revenue around mid 2020s or by 3rd Q

Yutong SD,DD e-bus, BYD ebus already got photos. so far no news of the ST electric bus in sg yet. I am curious how it look like

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

Other countries buses are good because no 1st/2nd gear restrictions,No 60kmh restrictions..We Sillyporeans are too gancheong.

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"
