Are there any electric or hybrid large minibuses?
Do you know if there are any manufactures that sell hybrid, PHEV or full electric 16/17 seat minibuses?

As things stand, there are no partial or fully electric powertrains for large minibuses. However, over the next 12/24 months, that will change when the Mercedes-Benz eSprinter and Volkswagen eCrafter go on sale.
We've already driven a prototype version of the eSprinter: vans.honestjohn.co.uk/van-news/new-vans/2018-07/dr.../
