Alexander Dennis Enviro200

The Alexander Dennis Enviro200 is a midibus that TransBus International and later Alexander Dennis built between 2003 and 2018. It was meant to sit between a minibus and a rigid single-decker bus and to replace the Dennis Dart SLF chassis together with the Alexander ALX200 and Plaxton Pointer 2 bodies. The first generation, unveiled at Coach & Bus 2003, was unusual in the United Kingdom for having a door at both the front and the rear, made possible by a vertically mounted rear engine, but only a handful were sold. The second generation, launched in 2006 as the Enviro200 Dart, kept the conventional rear-engined layout of the Dennis Dart and revived sales. More than 6,000 had been built by July 2017, and the Enviro200 MMC, launched in 2014, replaced it.
