New York City’s MTA To Take Delivery Of Its 1,000th Prevost Coach  | All Travel Bookings

Prevost, a member of the Volvo Group and a North American motorcoach manufacturer, has announced that in 2026 the New York City Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) will take delivery of its 1,000th Prevost coach. 

“This number illustrates the relationship of trust that exists between North America’s largest public transportation agency and Prevost,” according to a press release. 

“This is a historic milestone for us. Just imagine 1,000 Prevost coaches on the road every day, serving the citizens of New York City and its suburbs. Over time, we have developed a genuine relationship of trust with the MTA, and we are very proud of that,” François Tremblay, President of Prevost and Volvo Group Canada, said. 

“We are proud to contribute to reliable, high-quality intercity transportation for New Yorkers. At Volvo Buses, sustainability is central to how we develop our vehicles and support operators in reducing emissions across their fleets,” Anna Westerberg, President of Volvo Buses, said.

“Modern, dependable, and safe buses are how New York City Transit delivers for over one million daily bus riders in New York City. We look forward to continuing to upgrade our fleet with high quality buses to ensure we are providing safe and efficient service for the New Yorkers who rely on our bus network to get them where they need to go,” MTA NYC Transit President Demetrius Crichlow said.

“I would like to extend my warmest thanks to everyone who contributed to this important milestone for Prevost, including our partner in New York and all of our teams and employees in Sainte-Claire,” Tremblay added. 

In December 2023, Prevost announced the largest contract in its history, with a major order from MTA for the manufacture of 381 coaches, including a firm order for 250 coaches to be delivered between 2025 and 2026. Visit www.volvogroup.com.
