E400s are a first for Faresaver

Faresaver Buses has received two Alexander Dennis Enviro200s, its first ever new double-deckers.

The pair are also the operator’s first ever double-deckers from Alexander Dennis. Two further identical vehicles are due to follow this autumn.

Built to a length of 10.9m with 77 seats, the new Enviro400s are fitted with Alexander Dennis SmartPack efficiency technology to bring down emissions and improve fuel economy.

Interior specifications include Altro wood-effect flooring and Lazzerini Pratico high-backed seats fitted with USB-A and USB-C charge points. Hanover Displays has supplied destination equipment as well as interior monitors. Information accessibility is further enhanced by the provision of an Ardent induction hearing loop system.

Faresaver Buses was established in 1979 and provides bus services across North and West Wiltshire and Bath.
