About the Crusader
The Champion Crusader is a highly maneuverable narrow-bodied shuttle, ideal for shorter trips and one-way streets. Choose between a Ford or Chevrolet chassis and enjoy upgraded interior finishes and exterior body style. Built with our small-group, quick-trip customers in mind, the Crusader is the go-to model for public transport, assisted-living facilities, health care transport and para-transport.
