As an occasional transit user, this morning is the first time I've gotten a battery electric bus. I know there's issues with this specific model (driver comfort and supply chain for replacement parts), but I must say it's very comfortable as a passenger.
Having no engine vibration is a huge win, and I'm pretty sure the regenerative brake system encourages better driver braking habits.

@UrbanEdm I've never ridden one, but I do live next to a bus stop and I love them because they're fairly quiet. Diesel buses are a large part of downtown noise pollution.
Every time I use that bus stop, though, I end up on a diesel bus.
