LOW-FLOOR VEHICLES ARE THE SMART CHOICE

Low-floor vans and shuttles are a practical addition to your Atlanta fleet. Here’s why they make sense:

  • Ease of access: Numerous low-floor vehicle ramps are practically level at curb height, making ingress and egress easy for all passengers.
  • Efficiency: Passengers can rapidly enter or exit with ramps that deploy in seconds, keeping you on time and helping maintain interior comfort.
  • Forward wheelchair placement: Foster a more inclusive rider experience with wheelchair positions at the front, aiding visibility and communication with the driver.
  • Manual ramp: Simple and quick, fold-out ramps require less upkeep than electric lifts and only need to be extended once per stop. 
  • Passenger independence: All people use the same entry point, removing the discomfort some passengers feel when entering via a lift. 

Low-floor shuttles and vans are an excellent fit for a variety of applications, including tour buses, airport transfers, retirement communities, casino and hotel transport, and more. Ready to go low-floor? Explore the factors you should look into when buying.

WHAT TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN SELECTING A LOW-FLOOR BUS OR VAN IN Atlanta

Whether you’re transporting residents to doctors’ appointments or ferrying guests to the airport, Model 1 can help you identify a low-floor vehicle ideal for your needs. A few of the main considerations include: 

  • Capacity: If you must have multiple wheelchair positions and want fewer trips, a larger shuttle is recommended. If ADA seating isn’t required for each trip and multiple runs are manageable, a smaller option might make more sense.
  • Financing: Low-floor vehicles should make transport more convenient for passengers without straining your budget. In-house financing experts at Model 1 can customize leasing, purchasing, and rental options to match your situation.
  • Environment: Smaller low-floor vans and minivans give you the maneuverability you need and the fuel savings you want for city driving.
  • Daily route (Duty Cycle): Your regular route is critical for choosing between smaller options and larger vehicles. Evaluate factors such as roadways, trip frequency, and distance.
  • Vehicle longevity: The average lifespan of a new, light-duty vehicle is around 150,000 to 200,000 miles or 7-12 years. In order to hit those benchmarks, you must consider your maintenance plan.
