About

ARBOC manufactures low-floor, body-on-chassis buses for transit, paratransit, and shuttle operators across North America. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Middlebury, Indiana, the company has produced more than 5,000 buses from its 112,000-square-foot manufacturing facility. It operates as a subsidiary of NFI Group Inc., a global bus manufacturer.

The company specialises in low-floor bus technology and vehicle accessibility design, with a product lineup that includes the Equess, Freedom, Independence, and Mobility models. ARBOC recently expanded into battery-electric propulsion with the Equess CHARGE, a fully accessible low-floor electric bus. This focus on accessibility - including wheelchair ramps and low-floor entry - reflects the company's emphasis on serving passengers of all abilities.

The company positions itself as an industry leader in low-floor cutaway bus design and manufacturing, with established relationships across a broad customer base in the public and private transit sectors.
