This stunning build by @t_riple9 is now prepped to train our teams in emergency response driving—while showcasing the unique capabilities of a full EV. #Rumbler #DTU #EV @EastEnglandAmb

This is bloody beautiful this car…. What you think? 🤔 comments below 👇

Its been an epic 18months here at @EastEnglandAmb with over 15 different new vehicle types coming into operation. More to come over the next 2 years and then on to the project of BEV 💚⚡

Some bank holiday disco lights to brighten day 😄 you wont miss these coming towards you

@JordanNicholls @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances @EastEnglandAmb No. These are 4t

@EEAST_OpSupport @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances @EastEnglandAmb Are these <3.5T ?

These @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances will be a very familiar sight in @EastEnglandAmb over the next 5 years with over 360 more joining the fleet in the next 2 years. Looking great in the glorious sunshine

@IsaacB999 @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances @EastEnglandAmb They have the Ferno PowerTraxx carry chair which can climb into the rear

@EEAST_OpSupport @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances @EastEnglandAmb Are these wheelchair or team chair friendly? Especially when transferring from them onto the stretcher. Thanks

@ethan_leys @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances @EastEnglandAmb Some are being collected this week

@EEAST_OpSupport @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances @EastEnglandAmb Exciting!! When will these be in West Norfolk?

For those wanting an indepth look at our amazing @EastEnglandAmb Bariatric and complex patient vehicle check out this video by Brad @RescueFitUK youtu.be/Dx4WeUX8zMo?si…

@samt2903 @EastEnglandAmb @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances I can't be exact. Other MAN builds are already in MSE. These will roll out trust wide replacing the oldest FIATs first

Another 89 @EastEnglandAmb @mantruckbusuk vehicles rolling off the production line thanks to @WASAmbulances 🥳

@samt2903 @EastEnglandAmb @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances These are the first of the new national specification. Previous ones have been small batch derogation builds getting us to this point

@EEAST_OpSupport @EastEnglandAmb @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances How comes there are so many different types of the same vehicle. Eg, additional lights on some?, different types of lights (blue lenses/clear lenses) and back steps?

@houghtonc79 @EastEnglandAmb @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances Not as much as you might think

@EEAST_OpSupport @EastEnglandAmb @mantruckbusuk @WASAmbulances Just curious but what is the cost difference between one of these MAN body on chassis vehicles and the awful Fiat converted delivery van!!

@mike75mike75 @EastEnglandAmb Driver training unit 😊

@EEAST_OpSupport @EastEnglandAmb DTU? I think I know what it means but the link doesn’t explain. Can you clarify please?

Bored child this half term??? Were looking for designs for our new batch of DTU cars with a childrens competition. Full details eastamb.nhs.uk/newsroom/your-… @EastEnglandAmb

Very brief show around of the new DTU training vehilce 🥳

@AndrewIH @SKODAUK @mantruckbusuk @EastEnglandAmb Hi The Bariatric ones are all out in ops working front line so will be a bit trickier but look back on this account. I'll post a quick one on the dtus tomorrow

@EEAST_OpSupport @SKODAUK @mantruckbusuk @EastEnglandAmb Can you do a show around the new bariatric and complex patient vehicles and a show around the new panel van driver training vehicles please. Thank you.

Busy busy busy at the moment!!! New @SKODAUK EV RRVS, new @mantruckbusuk driver training vehicles and new DSAs being comissioned and released into @EastEnglandAmb frontline operations 🥳🥳🥳

@Bradderss2 @liammattg Generally, our RRVS get some standby on shift so are able to charge 20%-80% in about 20 minutes so keeps them topped up nicely

@liammattg @EEAST_OpSupport Suppose if you look at it that way yeah. Wonder what the charge speed is like in this situation

Been a while since weve had a gratuitous blue light vid 🤣 out new fully electric RRV ⚡⚡

@Bradderss2 Weve had one on trial for over a year now. Obviously the range varies hugely on use and driving requirements, but approximately 120-150miles with heavy response use

@EEAST_OpSupport Well it's definitely got a visible presence! Looks good. What's the range on these?

@statto95 It has a very long throw. So very effective longer ranges to give greater forewarning

@EEAST_OpSupport How effective is that bottom white under the number plate? Seems very low
