I am grateful to Neo Cheung for advising me of a further variant of the Brilliant Buses Citybus Jonckheere Monaco bodied Volvo B12. This version features fleet number 2004 (GT2814) and is on route 534 to Shenzhen Airport (BB006).
 
This is the eighth variant and I believe there are two more I've yet to discover!

In a social media post today, Alexander Dennis has confirmed that a further nine of the thirty-five Enviro500EV ordered by MTR Corporation have recently arrived in Hong Kong. They will be used on feeder bus services to Hong Kong’s Mass Transit Railway urban rail system for residents in the Northwest New Territories. The latest buses follow a pre-production vehicle which entered service in June 2024 as the Corporation’s first electric bus.
