Micro Bird MB-II
School Bus
The Micro Bird MB-II school bus combines a spacious wide-body design with exceptional maneuverability and accessibility. Its aerodynamic oval body provides more room per passenger than other Type A school buses in its class, with 34-inch seating, a 14-inch aisle and capacity for up to 20 passengers. Its compact, single-rear-wheel design makes the MB-II especially well-suited for urban routes and special-needs transportation.
The MB-II school bus features Micro Bird’s More-View™ panoramic window design, a fully glazed entrance door and a standard 24-inch electric double-opening door for enhanced driver visibility during loading and unloading. Full-length, heavy-gauge steel side-impact barriers provide additional protection, while integrated child seats and 3-point lap-and-shoulder seat belts are available.
The MB-II stands apart as the only single-rear-wheel Type A school bus available with a wheelchair lift. ADA-compliant lifts, Micro Bird-exclusive dual lift doors and securement anchorage options provide flexibility for transporting students with mobility needs.
Available on Ford or Chevy/GMC chassis, the MB-II offers multiple gasoline engine options for proven, reliable performance.
