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.
