ARBOC Specialty Vehicles
The low-floor pioneers: ramp-boarded cutaway and medium-duty buses, part of the NFI Group family.
About ARBOC Specialty Vehicles
ARBOC Specialty Vehicles pioneered the low-floor cutaway bus, built around a patented angled, ramp-boarded entrance in place of a wheelchair lift, so every passenger, walking or rolling, boards through the same door with no lift cycle to run or maintain. ARBOC calls its range North America’s most comprehensive cutaway and medium-duty low-floor product line.
Built in Middlebury, Indiana as part of New Flyer of America’s NFI Group, ARBOC buses are a mainstay of paratransit, senior living, and transit agency fleets nationwide. TESCO stocks and services ARBOC low-floor buses.

Spirit of Mobility
Low-floor cutaway · Ford chassis
The Spirit of Mobility is the bus that made low-floor boarding mainstream: a single, non-discriminatory angled entrance with a fold-out ramp, kneeling suspension, and a flat interior floor. Passengers using mobility devices roll straight aboard: no lift, no separate door, no waiting. Built on the Ford cutaway chassis with wheelchair positions plus ambulatory seating.

Freedom
Low-floor cutaway · GM chassis
The Freedom carries ARBOC’s patented angled, accessible entranceway onto the GM cutaway chassis, giving fleets standardized on GM service networks the same ramp-boarded, step-free experience.

Independence
Low-floor van-scale cutaway
The Independence brings low-floor accessibility down to the Ford Transit, for a lower cost of ownership in a right-sized package with the safety and dependability of the Transit platform under it. Pictured: an earlier ProMaster-based Spirit of Independence from TESCO inventory.

Equess
Purpose-built medium-duty low floor
