Overview

The Kavlyr, In Plain Terms

The Kavlyr is what you buy when the E-Series runs out of bus. Ford F-550 and F-600 chassis carry more passengers, more wheelchair positions, and more GVWR headroom — in gas or diesel — without stepping up to a freight chassis.

It’s built for high-utilization work: transit contractors, campus loops, large senior living campuses, and routes where 29 passengers plus luggage is a Tuesday, not a special event.
