King County Metro tested out these electric buses in 2018.
As tests in many others cities could have told the transit agency,
- the buses work well,
- drivers and passengers love them,
- and costs to operate them are so low
that the lifetime costs of the buses are competitive or lower than conventional fossil-powered buses.
Unsurprisingly, King County Metro found from its own tests that was the case and decided to make these plans to electrify.
