“We are thrilled to introduce electric buses to the LibertyBus fleet,” LibertyBus director Kevin Hart says.
“This represents a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to sustainable travel.
“The adoption of electric buses not only aligns with our environmental responsibilities but also enhances the overall travel experience for our passengers.”
Transit says the electric buses are expected to contribute to a reduction in air pollution, noise and overall carbon footprint.
The buses include other innovative features, including USB charge points on every seat, a passenger announcement system and information display, an induction loop for hearing-impaired people and camera monitor system mirrors.
