The Switch Metrodecker, formerly the Optare MetroDecker, is an integral twin-axle double-decker bus produced by the British manufacturer Switch Mobility since 2014. It was designed as the successor to the Optare Olympus and OmniDekka double-deckers, which ended in 2011, and unlike them it is built only as an integral vehicle, sharing its look and interior with the Metrocity. The first version used a four cylinder Euro VI Mercedes-Benz engine. A battery electric Metrodecker EV followed in late 2015 with a 250 kW battery, and a hydrogen fuel cell MetroDecker H2 was announced in 2020. Metroline took the first Transport for London order, 31 Metrodecker EVs, in 2019.
