The Enviro100EV will be available as a low-floor integral midibus with Alexander Dennis' own in-house electric drivetrain, complementing the BYD-powered Enviro200EV in the Alexander Dennis product range.[1] Plans have been made to potentially introduce a Transport for London specification Enviro100EV by mid-2024.[2]

The Stagecoach Group was the first bus operator to order the Enviro100EV, with one autonomous example to be delivered to Stagecoach East Scotland for service on the CAVForth2 service, an extension of the original CAVForth scheme operated by five autonomous Alexander Dennis Enviro200AVs, towards Dunfermline city centre via the Forth Road Bridge.[3][4]
