Created by Wrightbus, the fastest-growing bus manufacturer in the whole of Europe, Rightech will benefit from 79 years of unbeatable quality and attention to detail. Not only is Wrightbus firmly cemented as the industry champion in zero emissions transport, but it is also led by one of Britain’s foremost green entrepreneurs, Jo Bamford, who has risen to the challenge of decarbonising the industry. Wrightbus is not new to the Net Zero story having launched FCEV buses in London in 2006 and the world’s first hydrogen double-decker bus in 2021. And its vehicles – both battery-electric and hydrogen – have already driven millions of miles around the UK and Europe, delivering passengers to their destinations without one drop of carbon from the tailpipe. The arrival of Rightech will breathe new life into commercial transport fleets of all sizes, with the Wrightbus backing providing operators with the ultimate guarantee from the industry’s best.
