The Enviro100EV was announced as a new model in the Alexander Dennis range on 1 November 2022 at the Euro Bus Expo at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England, with the first production model unveiled a year later on 1 November 2023. The bus is primarily marketed at smaller bus operators running bus services in rural areas, although plans have been made to potentially introduce a Transport for London specification Enviro100EV by mid-2024, and an Enviro100EV for international markets was also in development as of November 2023.
