Re:Japan is holding back as the world rushes toward electric... by Someone on Sunday August 22, 2021 @04:27PM (#28269274)
In Western Europe, it’s quite common to see tenders for electric public transport bus lines or more generic tenders being won by firms offering a solution using electric buses (not necessarily on costs, but on pollution, noise levels, and environmental grounds)

I think electric vehicles are mainstream there, already. It wouldn’t surprise me if all further winning bids were fully electric.

For example, googling “public transport bus tenders electric” gives me
