- The New Bus for London, sometimes referred to as NB4L, and colloquially as the New Routemaster or Borismaster... in action around Central London .. End November 2013
Following an open design competition in 2008, Wrightbus was awarded the contract to build the bus at the end of 2009, and the final design was announced in May 2010.
The design for the new bus features three doors and two staircases to allow accessible boarding. Unlike the original Routemaster, the new bus has a conventional full front end and a rear platform that can be closed when not needed, rather than the protruding, bonneted 'half cab' design and permanently open platform. The layout of the new bus allows it to be operated by one person at off-peak times. The cost of each bus will be £354,500 over the four year procurement period , which is higher than the price of £326,000 for a standard bus.
The bus is driven by an electric motor powered by a battery pack. This is recharged by a diesel generator and regenerative braking. The diesel engine runs only when the battery needs charging and so the bus will have lower pollution and better fuel consumption than earlier buses in this class.

Hi, i'm a coach driver in France, next week, my daughter will have a trip in London, i asked her to take pictures of these iconic vehicules. She didn't know this kind of vehicules was still existing !
they are iconic..... hope they always use them. Regards Paul
Had my first ride on one of these, on the 9s. I was very impressed with the quiet, comfortable ride. I wish they were on more routes.
Excellent.... I've not been on one yet. Thanks for your comment. Paul
Paul Donovan Fab retro"RML" design(well done Wright bus!) Gr8 vid to!!
Lord fauntleroy thank you Lord.... Regards Paul
mine was on 453 only
I love these English buses, they're so stylish
I agree.... they are a great design !! Regards Paul
Looks like students thought they deigned something creative using silly 45 degree angles and some committee fell for it and gave approval.
Great Bus.... clever design... and much loved by passengers.
Nice bus. I have never been on one like that before. They look very cool. Nice video :-)
+Matthew Calderwood Thanks for your Comment. Paul
I love this, I was in London last week and when I first saw it I was impressed great art work! And detailed design.
agreed... thanks for your comment 😎👍
This is like anti-ASMR when you expect him to enter the bus the entire video, but he is only showing them passing by and nothing else.
ASMR ??
As long as they're big, comfy, efficient and frugal they will be winners.
gorgeous vehicles. Shame they couldn't think of a name
Yes.... that would have been nice. Thanks for writing... much appreciated. Regards Paul
These buses look beautiful. I wish they were on more routes like 264, 60 and 466. Great video mate :)
+Michael Grafham Cheers Michael.... I appreciate your comment. I think they are excellent.. !!
wow!
Make a more iconic looking rm bus! Modern but iconic!
so... do you like it or not ?? regards Paul
Paul Donovan I just don’t like how they look! The old Routemasters had that look that made them special and genuine,not to mention the attention they always had from tourists visiting London. If the new busesjust had an iconic look to them I’d be more happy and open with them. You know like the new London electric black cabs! They look new and modern but while still having an iconic look to them like the older cabs! Plus I don’t understand why they call the new route master if it lacks the basic things the original one had!! (Hop on hop off back door and conductors)
I quite like them.... of course the old RMs are one of THE Iconic symbols of London. I've not been on the new one.... must give it a go. Thanks for your comments...... much appreciated. Regards Paul
So far I like the new London Double Decker Buses it has a very unique look. Also the headlights in the front of the bus sorta gives it a goofy look IMO lol 😄
nice video
Thank You 👍
Bloody dreadful design, jerking around, crap engine, poxy hard seats, no room on the bottom deck, and the rest, FIT FOR THE SCRAYARD - THE LOT OF THEM.
Crikey... I like the look but have never been in one !!
England 🏴
yes !!
Not the most ugliest of vehicle types, the LT Borismaster. looks interesting from the sides and rear end, but not much else to say about it, you will find people stating more negative views of the type, mind.
Thanks for your comment.... I must say that I quite like it.... ☺
