There are several characteristics that distinguish a "Champion" over their competitors.  The single most unique feature has to be the tough steel body.  Utilizing steel for the exterior of the bus, gives a Champion rigidity and sturdiness.  Not even the toughest conditions can rattle a Champion bus.  Also, in the competitive shuttle bus market, few companies have the full faith and commitment of the original chassis manufacturers.  Champion Bus meets or exceeds all the strict requirements to be a preferred conversion company.  It takes a lot to wear the badge of a Champion.

There are several models to choose from.  Please feel free to click on the various models shown below.  Detailed brochures are available at the click of a button.  Just e-mail us your contact information and we can send some to you - free of charge!

Crusader - The smallest of the family, Crusader is not inferior.  Far from it, this rugged bus will serve your small bus needs.  Floor plans vary from 8-passengers up to 14-passengers.   Many organizations choose Crusader because in many states a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) is not required to drive one.

Challenger - The most popular model that Champion manufactures.  This bus is the most versatile of all the mid-size shuttle buses.  Wheelbases can start at 158" and grow to an astounding 218".  Challenger can be configured to accommodate from 12-passengers up to 29-passengers. 

Defender - Definitely the work-horse of the fleet.  A Champion Defender will do the job no matter the miles or load.  20-passenger to 33-passenger seating is available.  The tough International chassis takes no grief from any road surface.

CTS - The flat nose alternative to a cutaway shuttle bus.  An excellent choice for any organization.  Floor plans start at 21' and can grow to 33'.  Seating is from 16 up to 37!  Churches like the bus for trips and activities.  Many coach companies prefer CTS for their interstate routes.  Value - CTS costs about one fifth (1/5) that of an over-the-road coach!

*** Keep in mind that a Champion bus can be configured to carry a wheelchair lift, luggage compartment, television equipment, medical equipment, or many other specialty items.  Buses are now more popular than ever.  The uses and layouts are virtually endless.  Please click and visit the individual models to see what each bus is capable of.
