[@MegaBreadvan]

Thanks for sharing that. I'm in France, so it is nice to see what is going on "back home" in Leicester. Nice front end treatment too.

0:25 They Have The Same Sound As Skegness Seasiders

I actually welcome this interior as opposed to Arriva’s normal interior, but that’s as someone who only buys cars with dark interiors. Given that the First and the Stagecoach demos have their standard interiors, hopefully that’s Arriva telling us they will be switching to this.

@leicestertravels4705 I hope this will be their new seating, anything better than the awful leather seating the MMCs have.

[@leicestertravels4705]

@ I think the YX72s’ seats are an improvement on the YX16s’, but they are still dreary, and the Sapphire mismatch does ruin it.
I’ve quite come to like Stagecoach’s, though the blue bars and the liveries spoils it.
I don’t like First’s one bit. The seat pattern is dull and tasteless, and it looks worse with Leicester’s green branding. I’d rather they kept the Fuschia spec with the pink interior because it made them more unique. Maybe we could have had the pink swapped for green like Leeds.

​@@Leicesterbusvideos32646Interesting opinion, because after more buses started getting leather seats I too began to see them as overrated!

[@b8l_60x]

I like these electric ADLs, they are much more rapid than those electric Yutongs and BYDs and the sounds aren't too bad for an EV (sort of sounds like a train), good interior layout as well

[@Leicesterbusvideos32646]

It's very nice, a lot better design than the BYD versions.

[@LJ07EBP]

The yutongs and byds are just as rapid wdym but nah I get u on everything else

[@b8l_60x]

@@LJ07EBP I have ridden both and feel like the ADL is much smoother while accelerating, while Yutong has lot more jerk, ADL also seems to have more power up the hills too

[@bv52_eno]

​​@@LJ07EBPthe BYDs only goes 43mph maxinum whilst the intergal E400EVs does 52, absolutely a pain on A45 when I'm having the BYDs on NXC X1. IIrc the yutongs does 52 aswell, but correct me if I am wrong

[@LJ07EBP]

@@bv52_eno i think theres a limit going on there, I am sure the BYD's can do more than that

[@MahmudulKhan-fr8xy]

I like the brand new Enviro 400ev Bus

[@TheMidlandsTransportGuy]

Gotta watch out for that one next time I'm In Leicester, didn't see it today!

[@AaronCable-tf9tt]

I've always seen it on the 47s and 48s around Wigston myself mind you all arrivas new buses go on the 48s and 47s most of the time

[@TheMidlandsTransportGuy]

Update I saw it today.

[@leonwilliams3221]

Even though it’s technically a demonstrator, ADL gifted Arriva this noting the ZEB in the reg. First and of course stagecoach have 1 also being FB74 and SC74 respectively.

[@johsa2162]

Im not normally a fan of electric vehicles but these seem pretty decent. These would look good in the Arriva fleet in Derby

[@StagecoachLE]

Nice Bus

[@SWTE728]

Input 1 strikes again! 😂

[@James-zs3cn]

I am not sure about the glass at the top about tree's

[@thewiltshiretrainspotter1152]

[@LJ07EBP]

Nice one

[@Leicesterbusvideos32646]

[@idontknow12383]

[@TheAmazingBusSpotterOfficial]

[@Leicesterbusvideos32646]

It's the new E400EV face-lift.

[@TheAmazingBusSpotterOfficial]
