Low Floor Advantage

Optimal’s proprietary No-Kneel® chassis is designed to allow for an ultra-low 11-inch (280mm) step-in height and quick deployment of an ADA-compliant accessibility ramp without the need for kneeling suspension, enabling easy access for all passengers.

Ford E450 Chassis – Built on a trusted and proven platform. Pairing automotive-grade engineering with the durability and serviceability of the E-450, the LFg delivers a uniquely reliable and maintenance-friendly solution.

Fast, Easier ADA Boarding

Low-floor ramps create an at-grade, dignified boarding experience. This dramatically reduces loading times and eliminates the awkward, slow and noisy experience of lift deployment suspension.

"driven & friendly"

Interior Flexibility & Passenger Flow

Flat, open low-floor interior solves the space and layout limitations of cutaways especially when carrying multiple mobility devices.
