Types of school transportation
Standard school bus (48 passengers)
The standard school bus remains a pillar of our fleet. Reliable, sturdy, and economical, it is particularly well suited to daily routes, educational outings, extracurricular activities, and group travel within the same region.
This model is suitable for schools, day camps, community organizations, youth clubs, sports teams, and groups looking for a simple, safe, and affordable way to travel.
Standard school buses are available for the following services:
Charter transportation + Shuttle services + Public transit + School transportation
School minibuses and smaller vehicles (up to 30 passengers)
For small groups, lower-ridership trips, or specific routes, Autocar Jeannois also offers smaller-capacity school vehicles.
Thanks to their more compact size, these vehicles make it easier to get around narrow streets, school drop-off zones, parking lots, and areas less accessible to large buses.
They are a practical option to reduce travel costs for small groups, local excursions, rural routes, or trips with a limited number of passengers.
Minibuses are available for the following services:
Charter transportation + Shuttle services + Public transit + School transportation
Modified luxury school buses (up to 48 passengers)
For outings that call for more comfort than a standard school bus, Autocar Jeannois also offers modified coach-style school buses, also known as semi-coaches.
This hybrid solution combines the reliability of a school bus with some comfort features better suited to longer trips.
Depending on the model, this type of vehicle can offer:
- more comfortable seats;
- seat belts;
- a smoother suspension for long trips;
- an optimized air conditioning or heating system;
- more open space;
- interior and/or exterior luggage storage;
- an improved interior ambiance.
This modified model is an attractive option for out-of-region outings that call for more comfort without necessarily choosing a luxury coach. It strikes a good balance between school bus safety, functionality, and coach comfort.
Modified buses are available for the following services:
Charter transportation + Shuttle services + Public transit + School transportation
Electric school buses (up to 48 passengers)
Autocar Jeannois is proud to include electric school buses in its fleet. Now making up 35% of our school vehicle fleet, this modern, sustainable solution helps reduce the environmental footprint of school transportation while offering a quieter, more pleasant ride for students.
Their equipment is comparable to that of a standard school bus. Their electric drivetrain makes it possible to:
- reduce greenhouse gas emissions;
- reduce noise in neighbourhoods and around schools;
- provide a quieter ride;
- limit vibrations on board;
- support the energy transition in Quebec.
This model is particularly relevant for daily school routes, urban or residential routes, and institutions that want to contribute to more sustainable mobility.
Electric school buses are available for the following services:
Charter transportation + Shuttle services + Public transit + School transportation
Accessible school buses and minibuses
Accessible school buses are designed to meet the needs of passengers with reduced mobility or who need an accessible, safe transportation solution.
Depending on the vehicle and the required configuration, these buses can make it easier to:
- board and exit passengers;
- transport passengers with reduced mobility;
- travel to schools;
- go on educational or extracurricular outings;
- provide specialized transportation for organizations or facilities.
