The Wright StreetAir is a low-floor single-decker electric bus design built by Wrightbus in Ballymena, Northern Ireland in 2016 and 17. An integral product based on a single-deck variant of the Wright StreetDeck chassis, the StreetAir replaces the Wright Electrocity in Wrightbus' product range.
The StreetAir was initially revealed in August 2016 as the replacement for the Wright Electrocity. It is based on a single-deck, all-electric version of the Wright StreetDeck integral double-decker bus. The StreetAir is available in a single 10.6 metre length weighing 18 tonnes.[1][2] The body design of the StreetAir is based on the Wright Eclipse 3. The StreetAir is available with electricity conduction via overnight (plug-in), inductive (through the road surface) or conductive (with a pantograph) methods.[3][4]
The first six StreetAirs entered service with Lothian Buses in October 2017, [5][6] aside from a single prototype vehicle trialled with bus operators in London.
A similar model to the Streetair, the GB Kite range was launched in September 2021, following the launch of the double-deck Wright StreetDeck Electroliner and Hydroliner range earlier in the year. This replaced the Wright Streetair.
