Buying decision
The EvCompass verdict
The key arguments drawn from the published data and the EvCompass editorial summary.
A height of 4,350 mm and a British interior layout mean this vehicle will not reach Poland without a redesign — double-deckers are an island speciality, not a continental one. The claimed 491 km applies to the largest of packs spanning 385 to 422 kWh. Deliveries went to British urban operators.
Strengths
- A 491 km range from a pack up to 422 kWh and capacity for up to 84 passengers give the double-decker a strong profile.
Weaknesses
- The 491 km figure has no stated SORT cycle or load, so the result for a UK urban bus remains an optimistic declaration.

- Measurement basis
- manufacturer figure for a single charge; pack options span 385-422 kWh so the 491 km headline applies to the larger pack. No SORT cycle stated - treat as optimistic against a UK urban duty cycle.
These are manufacturer-published figures gathered through EvCompass research.
Price and availability
What it costs and whether it is available in Poland
Published price evidence and the Polish availability answer, kept together for a buying decision.
The manufacturer publishes no price for this vehicle.
In heavy transport that is the rule rather than the exception — makers quote on request.
No public list price. UK deliveries to Newport Bus, FirstGroup, Stagecoach and Xplore Dundee were announced without values; most are part-funded through UK ZEBRA/ScotZEB grants that do not disclose per-unit price.
Poland
Not available in Poland
No. The U11DD was engineered for the UK double-deck market (4,350 mm height, UK-specific layout); no Polish operator or homologation found.
Charging infrastructure
Recommended chargers
Chargers matched to the vehicle's published power or to a clearly stated duty profile when that figure is missing.
This vehicle does not publish its own DC charging power. The chargers below are matched to a charging profile typical for this class of vehicle (around 150 kW), not to a figure this vehicle publishes.

Sources and research
Research notes
The sources and research notes behind the figures, claims and editorial assessment.
Curb weight 13,750 kg per Wikipedia; GVW not published. A second-generation U11DD with a fully flat lower floor and updated safety compliance was launched at Busworld Europe 2025. Doors: 1 or 2 depending on operator specification; recorded 1 as the common UK layout. This is a China-built double-decker competing directly with Alexander Dennis and Wrightbus in the UK, which is why UK operators (First, Stagecoach, Newport, Xplore Dundee) dominate the fleet list.
