Make transportation easier for all passengers with the top low-floor vehicles from Model 1 Duncan. Check out our step-free buses, full-size vans, and minivans from industry-leading manufacturers and put an emphasis on accessibility.
WHY LOW-FLOOR VEHICLES ARE WORTH IT
Low-floor shuttles and vans are a valuable asset to your Duncan fleet. Here’s why they stand out:
- Ease of access: Ramps on many low-floor vehicles are nearly level at curb height, making egress and ingress simple for all riders.
- Operational efficiency: Everyone enters or exits quickly with ramps that open in seconds, keeping you on time and helping maintain interior comfort.
- Wheelchair-forward placement: Build a more inclusive rider experience by positioning wheelchairs toward the front, aiding sightlines and communication with the driver.
- Manual ramp: Simple and quick, manual ramps require less upkeep than electric lifts and only have to be deployed once per stop.
- Rider autonomy: Everyone uses the same entry, eliminating the discomfort some riders experience when entering via a lift.
Low-floor buses and vans are a great fit for various applications, including airport transfers, tour buses, casino or resort transport, retirement communities, and more. Interested in going low-floor? See what you should consider before you buy.
WHAT TO THINK ABOUT WHEN BUYING A LOW-FLOOR BUS OR VAN IN Duncan
Whether you’re shuttling guests to the airport or transporting residents to medical appointments, Model 1 can help you identify a low-floor vehicle perfect for your application. Here are several of the primary considerations:
- Capacity: If you must have space for several wheelchairs and wish to minimize the number of trips, a larger shuttle is your best bet. If ADA seating isn’t required for all trips and multiple runs are manageable, a smaller option could offer a more practical solution.
- Financing: Low-floor buses and vans should make things easier for passengers without going over your budget. Financing specialists at Model 1 can provide purchasing, rental, and leasing options for your financial situation.
- Environment: More compact low-floor vans and minivans offer the maneuverability you require and the gas savings you want for city streets.
- Daily route (Duty Cycle): Your regular route is essential for selecting the right vehicle size. Weigh factors such as distance, trip frequency, and roadways.
- Vehicle longevity: The average lifespan of a new, light-duty bus or van is roughly 150,000 to 200,000 miles or 7-12 years. In order to reach or exceed those levels, you must consider your maintenance plan.
