Prototyping? Companies such as Linkker in Finland have been producing BEV buses for years: http://www.linkkerbus.com/ http://www.linkkerbus.com/ We've had a couple of them running normal bus lines in Copenhagen for some years, to assess the feasibility and TCO compared to diesel, CNG and hybrid buses. So far they seem to be doing rather well. They're quiet and comfortable (no vibration) -- as a passenger, I really like them.

Yes prototyping. In the same couple of years China replaced almost all buses in Shenzen with electrics.

  They tend to throw shit at the wall, and see what sticks, reliability and safety are secondary at best. Or someone dictated that it should be done, not matter what.

      A lot of them, and I am also highly critical of their "take no prisoners" approach.
