I live in Albuquerque NM. I remember when we tried to buy a bunch of BYDs electric busses a few years ago.

They were nothing but problems apparently. Batteries were to small, couldn't run a full day. Breaks weren't good enough to stop in a reasonable distance. Oh and the doors would open spontaneously, while driving, with out being able to be closed.

The city canceled the rest of the order, and never put them into service.
