Wheelchair vans

A minivan or full-size van converted with a ramp or lift and wheelchair securement, seating 9 or fewer passengers. Under the federal definition it is not a bus, which starts above 10 occupants.

Wheelchair vans typically seat 2 to 9 passengers plus 1 to 3 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.

Normally drivable on a regular license: it is under both the 16-occupant and the 26,001 lb thresholds. 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.

Non-emergency medical transport, senior living, families, small agencies.

Search wheelchair vans listed by dealers across the U.S., then make a request about the bus you want. Your enquiry goes only to the dealer selling that bus, and the dealer follows up. It is free to search and send a request.
