Nowhere else in the country bar London has as many hybrids as Manchester, though this is probably because the operating environment lends itself to hybrid operation, which much of the country doesn't.

Why does "the operating environment lends itself to hybrid operation" work here compared to other regions?

They aren't really suited to operation in "out of town" areas, which predominate in many of the Stagecoach UK Bus operations.
