Wheelchair-accessible buses

Any bus equipped with a wheelchair lift or ramp and securement stations, configured to carry mobility-device users alongside seated passengers.

Wheelchair-accessible buses typically seat 8 to 24 passengers plus 2 to 4 wheelchair positions. Exact capacity depends on the seating configuration and, where wheelchair positions are specified, on how many seats are given up to securement stations.

Usually built as a non-CDL cutaway, but the lift and securement equipment adds weight. Confirm GVWR against the occupant count. A commercial driver's licence with a passenger endorsement is generally required at 16 or more occupants including the driver, or above 26,001 lb GVWR, but state rules vary and the occupant count on the specific unit is what decides it. Always verify against the unit, not the category.

Paratransit, senior living, medical transport, special-needs routes. On CommercialBuses these requests usually arrive from a dealer whose own inventory cannot fill a buyer's spec.
