 A second view of 758 seen in Tauranga in February 2020. The bulk of the Tauranga area network is provided by NZ Bus using many locally built Enviro200 buses in a bright yellow Bayhopper branded livery. Uzabus makes a small contrbution to the Bayhopper network with - in 2022 - three Versas, two Solos and two Enviro200. One of the Versas is behind, 594 (JQL768), which was new to Beacon Bus in south west England as MX58ACU.
