在香港特區政府透過環境保護處,向本港多間巴士營運商給予資助,用作購買新能源車輛並投放於不同路線作試驗營運。當中新創建交通服務有限公司,獲資助購買十架電動巴士及其相關設施。經過招標程序後,除了比亞迪奪得當中五架電動巴士訂單外,同樣來自中國的華廈神龍亦取得餘下新車訂單。在新車到港時間方面,華廈神龍稍為落後於對手比亞迪,首架新車於二零一五年十月於北京中國節能與新能源汽車成果展亮相,並隨後於十二月尾運抵本港。

華廈神龍早於二零一零年藉著創新科技嘉年華,向香港市民展示旗下的電動巴士產品,當中包括一架雙層巴士。隨後於二零一三年,中電向華廈神龍購入一架電動旅遊客車,作為接載員工及參觀人士之用,而到二零一四年年中,華廈神龍更向愉景灣交通服務有限公司交付兩架長十米,型號LS-150-105的電動巴士,並投入於區內穿梭巴士路線服務居民。這趟華廈神龍向新創建供應的五架新車,型號為LS-130-116,合共可以運載三十五名座位乘客及二十九名企位乘客,至於車身長度亦跟愉景灣的有所分別,接近十一點六米車身,足夠應付港島區尤其半山區路窄多彎的環境。值得一提是,華廈神龍強調這批電動巴士設有波箱,以其在斜路環境有更佳表現。

新創建同樣將三架神龍電動巴士編配予城巴作試驗,車隊編號為1584 - 1586。在接受出牌前的檢驗程序後,三架神龍電動巴士先後於二零一六年五月底至六月初登記出牌,隨後用作車長訓練及測試,並計劃於九月十二日安排到先前測試比亞迪電動巴士的路線上,作載客及對照測試。可惜在原定投入服務當天,城巴發現巴士仍然有技術問題有待解決,故決定延遲巴士投入服務日期,最終城巴於二零一七年六月二日,安排三架神龍電動巴士於11,12及25A路線展開載客營運測試。
