Adaptability and Accesibility

Designed with accessibility in mind, the Trek Lite minibus comes with a variety of adaptable features.
Depending on the model, you can opt for a folding rear access ramp or an electrically operated passenger lift, both of which are simple to use and neatly stowed when not in use.

Wheelchair restraints and three-point seat belts provide added safety for all passengers, while a retractable sidestep, hand poles, and grab handles ensure ease of entry and exit. Additional onboard safety equipment includes a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and break glass hammers.
The Trek Lite is built to the highest European safety standards, with floors, seats, seat belts, and wheelchair restraints rigorously tested for compliance. Every vehicle also comes with an Individual Vehicle Approval (IVA) certificate, independently verified by a Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) appointed test centre, ensuring complete peace of mind.
