In addition to a detailed history of its electric bus fleet conversion on its website, the ATVA also touts a step by step timeline of its efforts – a process that truly got moving six years ago, when the AVTA Board of Directors voted to approve the purchase of up to 85 new all-electric buses from BYD.

**Currently, the ATVA’s all-electric transit fleet consists of 57 BYD zero-emission buses,**10 GreenPower EV Star Microtransit vans, and 20 battery-electric commuter coaches from Motor Coach Industries (MCI).

With its latest celebration, the now all-electric transit agency has achieved its goal… 18 years ahead of California’s regulated deadline.
