Optare Chief Executive, Jim Sumner, said: "On behalf of all our employees at Optare it gives me immense pride to collect this very prestigious award, which is the culmination of three years hard work by the team. We passionately believe that the future of the bus industry lies in EV and that Optare's demonstrated market leadership will be sustained in the years to come as zero emission technology takes off."
