- The new Stagecoach London Volvo BZLs for the Route 276 are slowly being delivered to Lea Interchange (LI). These are fantastic looking vehicles & I cannot wait to see them in service in the coming months.
66032 (LF73DYB) is the one we focus on today with a breif look of the outside & inside of the vehicle. Let me know your thoughts!

0:18 that's sick, thanks for touching up on that
At least it has a back window unlike most EV buses.
It seems like ev single deckers have back windows. Is the double decks that don’t usually. Even the double deck variant of this bus.
Oh wow thats a very nice bus, i would try this
This is very leng man, im excited for the future of these settling into London. I wonder what route they will do next after 276
it been conformed 314 is next in line for theses EVs
Yeah
The first 10.4M ones in London
Idk that looks so clean great bus also great design for stagecoach 👍👍
You know my opinion on these boxes😂however nice video mate! I do also like how on the back it says “give way to buses” at 1:40, not like car drivers or cyclists would listen but I do like that being there
Great for these to come out!
Stagecoach new design outside of London uses a single colour seat, no patterns. They got rid of moquette but TfL states seats have to use moquette, so they now use generic TfL bus moquette.
Very nice and thanks for sharing. Dave
Siiiiiick just wish it had the stagecoach interior
wdym? thats stagecoach
or are u wishing it had like those usual stagecoach livery?
i think thats u mean
@@EnvirosAreTheBestLondonyeah I just wish it had the usual Stagecoach Livery
@@James_Nicol yeah
i saw this when i was passing LI
Heard stagecoach have ordered 170 of these for the Manchester franchising. 150 DD and 20 SD … shame I won’t get to drive them as they lost the bid to keep my depot😢
Do you know where the 277 D7 and 58 one is at
Great video, was this filmed in Lea Interchange Garage? Sorry if it’s a dumb question!
Yes
IM not sure about the seats, i think there used on the ev liners
The GB kites look better in my opinion but these MCVs have competition for the sales cuz GB kites are now on abellio and practically everywhere in the UK. Hope MCV tries to do the same!
my opinion these look better, because you look at the side window at the back and it dont fit, but i get what you mean and i hope these do well aswell!
These are actually amazing, can’t wait for these buses will start service on Route 276
But then again, NO MIDDLE BACK SEATS!!! 😡😡😡
The latest TFL specification prohibits the middle seat at the back now
@@londonbusexplorerwhy
The ones for 58 should hopefully be in Stagecoach spec....
it should be
i dont think 58 would become a single decker
@@EnvirosAreTheBestLondon he meant the interior of the bus not the type of bus
@@thebus-ter oh ok
Sorry but...
Are you the driver of the eletric bus?
Im a bit disappointed with the seating layout.
This bus feels like there's barely any more seats on the front and it doesn't have the new Stagecoach interior.
I'm gonna assume Stagecoach can't rollout the new interior due to interior design requirements.
So 6/10 for me. 🤷🏿♂️
This is Stagecoaches new interior, they don't have a fabric livery anymore so they had to result to using tfls fabric but besides that its still their own colours
@@LJ07EBP would've prefer the the grey and blue livery but I know that won't happen anytime soon
@@thebus-ter your opinion is respected. I think Stagecoach just need to get their own fabric again as the new interior colours are good but you can't just go with TFL fabric forever, cmon your a big company you got to have your own fabric
Yes but think. The 507 and 521 had designated room for commuters so the seating layout could be inspired by this and may do heavier jobs in the future instead of the 276.
@@thebus-terthat cannot happen due to colourblind people, they can’t see blue supposedly so it’s a part of the disability act I believe… it’s a new thing and from what I can see only TfL are abiding by it atm
Why they didn’t put Stagecoach Seats?
I heard it’s because tfl seats require a moquette. And if you look at new outer London Stagecoach bus interiors they lack a moquette. I actually prefer this interior to an old Stagecoach interior, it especially suits the high spec interior as well.
you forgotton to show bus length
do you know when they are gonna start rolling them out?
Spring 2024
Its a shame it was not built in the UK except in the Middle East.
I don’t see why that’s a problem…?
Saw these at lea interchange
same, i think there are more at Ash Grove aswell
Did you get permission to go onto the site or do they just let you?
Well you can’t exactly walk into a bus garage in operation 🤣. They don’t just let you.
@@plasmauktransport1657 how did you get in?
I had permission.
MAJID PREDICTED IT RIGHT 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Looks nice but that is a strange interior layout and a lack of a centre final-row seat is stupid (probably over "safety").
Not at all digging the Chapman-manufactured seat moquette, Go-Ahead's design is much better.
why are those buses heights so high :sob:
its nearly the height of the double decker next to it
true lol, but very tall people cant hit their heads lol
Not a fan of the tfl moquette, don’t understand why Stagecoach didn’t use leather seats or the original interior , same with the electroliners.. oh well
Because Stagecoach no longer have their own fabric, they only have leather so they had to result to using tfls fabric as the seats within a high spec TFL interior require either fully fabric or fabric and leather mixed. Stagecoaches fabric was outdated since they changed the logo and it still has the original logo on it, so I can see why they stopped it but they gotta come up with a replacement
I kinda like it
Lopez Jason Perez Richard Gonzalez Maria
Nice Tour! It looks like a cardboard box...
Not a fan of this plastic protrusion on the rear row of seats, rather just have the 5 seats!
Wait BYD?!!? that a chinses state owned company, think about it.....
oh no, i sense the end of my life
I sense a BZL takeover with STG 😂 so many orders
Looks like we won’t be seeing stagecoach London livery on newer electric busses anymore 😢 hate this new livery
Not that bad when you get used to it but I agree. I will also miss the stagecoach London livery
The metroline ones look better
Rare stagecoach L for front logo placement,looks hideous.
i mean theres no room to place the logo on the front, so at leas compromise with this.
Hate the TFL livery
I'm not keen on the new MCV design so it's a 👎🏾down for that.
"a great design by mcv just like the evoseti" you sure about that buddy? the evosetis are ugly in my opinion
i rlly like the mcv but each to their own i guess
Nah my opinion Evosetis look amazing
opinions exist you know but I can see why you’re saying that
@@goutamsaha8136 the headlight design doesnt look very nice
it looks a bit like a knife
Really I hate this new livery
