WHY LOW-FLOOR VEHICLES ARE WORTH IT
Low-floor shuttles and vans are a valuable asset to your Phoenix fleet. Here are a few reasons why:
- Easy boarding: Numerous low-floor vehicle ramps are nearly flat at curb height, making ingress and egress easy for all riders.
- Time savings: Everyone enters or exits rapidly with ramps that open in seconds, keeping your routes on time and helping maintain interior comfort.
- Wheelchair-forward placement: Build a more inclusive environment by positioning wheelchairs near the front, improving sightlines and communication with the driver.
- Fold-out ramp: Fast and simple, manual ramps require less upkeep than powered lifts and need to be used only once per stop.
- Passenger autonomy: All passengers use the same entry system, eliminating the anxiety some riders feel when using a lift.
Low-floor buses and vans are an excellent choice for many applications, including retirement communities, airport transfers, casino or hotel transport, tour buses, and more. Interested in going low-floor? Review the factors you should consider when purchasing.
WHAT TO THINK ABOUT WHEN BUYING A LOW-FLOOR BUS OR VAN IN Phoenix
Whether you’re ferrying guests to the airport or transporting residents to healthcare appointments, Model 1 can help you identify a low-floor vehicle perfect for what you do. A few of the main considerations include:
- Capacity: If you need space for multiple wheelchairs and wish to minimize the number of trips, a full-size shuttle is ideal. If ADA seating isn’t required for each trip and multiple trips are feasible, a smaller vehicle might make more sense.
- Cost considerations: Low-floor buses and vans should make life easier for passengers without straining your budget. Financing specialists at Model 1 can provide leasing, purchasing, and rental options to match your budget, needs, and future goals.
- Environment: Smaller low-floor vans and minivans give you the maneuverability you need and the gas savings you want for city driving.
- Daily route (Duty Cycle): Your regular route is essential for deciding between bigger buses and smaller vehicles. Consider factors such as trip frequency, distance, and roadways.
- Vehicle longevity: The average lifespan of a new, light-duty vehicle is approximately 7-12 years, or 150,000 to 200,000 miles. In order to hit those benchmarks, you must have a regular maintenance plan.
