...Superior
Features...
...Innovative
Design...
...Cost Effective
Transportation...
|
|
|
|
...Optimized
Ride Quality and
Maneuverability...
Improved wide-track
suspensions with multiple air
bags and adjustable shocks,
coupled with a torsionally
rigid structure, result in
optimized ride quality, while
accurate steering geometry and
large cut angles result in
exceptional
maneuverability... continuous
improvement. |
 |
|
|
|
...Improved
Accessibility...
Wide doors and a
generous 36"
front aisle width
maximize
accessibility; the
best in the
industry. Flip out
ramp
(exceeding ADA) and a
large vestibule area
make ingress and
egress for all
passengers quick and
easy... superior
features. |
|
...Increased
Passenger Comfort...
Our tri-level seating
plan has the most
seats in the industry
and maximizes comfort
with the most forward
facing seats. It
also has the most seats with 2
wheelchairs
aboard. The
spacious interior and
large windows are
passenger friendly and
the extra sound
insulation and
vibration dampening
enhance comfort... rider
benefits. |
|
|
|
...Superior
Driver's Area...
The ergonomic driver's
compartment maximizes
comfort and
functionality; from an
extensive warning
light bar (46
indicators) to a tilt
and telescoping
steering column; from
a wrap around
windshield for
optimized visibility
to a wrap around
driver's barrier for
superior style and
protection... improved
comfort and control. |
|
|
|
 |
...Maintenance
Friendly...
The unique body
structure is quick and
easy to repair.
Quick change skirt
panels and easily
accessible maintenance
items speed up
servicing and minimize down
time. A
multiplexed electrical
system with enhanced
diagnostics,
standardized
components, large
access doors, and a
roomy engine
compartment further
ease maintenance and
reduce down time... intelligent
designs. |
|
|
 |
...Standard
Tires...
The Gillig Low Floor
Bus was the first to
accommodate standard
size tires, thus
reducing rim damage,
extending tire and
brake life, and
standardizing tire
inventory... a smart
idea. |
|
|
|
...Unique
Body Structure...
The patented* body
structure of
light-weight
high-strength aluminum
alloy is non-corrosive
and easy to
repair. Its'
reduced weight also
saves on wear and
tear, as well as fuel
costs, and it is also
environmentally
responsible because
it's recyclable...
innovative thinking. (*

|
 |
...Maximized
Safety...
Passenger safety is
enhanced in the low
floor area by a
stainless steel
under-floor structure
incorporating an
angled steel side
impact barrier which
is unique to the
industry.
Further enhancing
safety, and equally
unique, are stainless
steel wheel housings
as well as a solid
steel front end
section and driver's
platform... we care. |
