We have some in Holland too. Works great. They accelerate quickly so buses don't hold up traffic and don't get many delays. Although it's too simple to suggest that by electrifying buses we save planet. Electric bikes are nice too, though fairly expensive. Most middle class folks have one. Electric cars don't seem to work at scale for now. Just unaffordably expensive and only economical for people who drive all the time and can charge on their own driveway.

Quick accelerate for family car is not needed but for bus is helpful to reduce traffic jam. I wish buses have at least hybrid powertrain.
