PURE VISION
The age of pure electric power has arrived

Cleaner cities. Quieter streets. Zero emissions. Lower operating costs.

The benefits of the BYD ADL Enviro200EV are clear.

The Enviro200EV brings together the proven battery and electric technology of
BYD and the outstanding design and build expertise of Alexander Dennis Limited
(ADL). BYD is already the world’s leading manufacturer of all-electric buses
having produced more than 10,000. ADL is the UK market leader and one of the
world’s fastest growing specialists in designing and building buses that meet the
demands of modern operators.

PURE PERFORMANCE
An environmentally-friendly bus designed to
deliver reduced operating costs

BYD’s development approach is integral to their global electric bus leadership –

10,000 buses produced, far in excess of any competitor.

Operating costs are lower, thanks to a significant reduction in fuel costs.

By working with ADL, these benefits have been built into a bus that is a joy to travel in
and a dream to drive. The driver’s environment is extremely comfortable, it’s a world- *
class ergonomic workspace that offers superior visibility. Better still, the quieter operating
environment reduces stress, while improving bus operators’ bottom line.

Wheel-hub Motor Assembly

The rear drive axle system, developed by
BYD, integrates the wheel-hub drive and
regenerative braking technologies, and
at the same time, provides exceptional
passenger comfort.

Electric Powertrain System

Integrated onboard charger controls the
functions of the battery and motor allowing
the driving motor to run in reverse when
required. The battery management system
consists of the signal collector and controller,
which can inspect every cell’s working status.
Other controllers include the HV distribution
box, DC-DC converter, inverter and the BCM.

Regenerative Braking System

The Enviro200EV features a Regenerative Braking System, which converts
part of the kinetic energy into electricity and stores it in the battery to give
additional driving range. The vehicle range can be increased accordingly
with lower noise by adopting such a regenerative system.
