A 12 passenger bus is a layout senior living communities, adult day programs and NEMT providers run every day: twelve seats plus a wheelchair lift and two wheelchair positions, usually on a Ford E-350 or E-450. Even counting the two wheelchair positions it carries 14 riders plus the driver, under the federal 16-person line, so no CDL is needed if its GVWR is under 26,001 lbs.
Every bus on this page seats 12 passengers, new orders and pre-owned, and most have the lift. Need two more seats and no wheelchair positions? Look at the 14 passenger buses.
