PREVOST: Strong. Safe. Proven.
The Truth About Bus Chassis
DEFINING THE WORD CHASSIS
The Prevost chassis, the benchmark of strength and safety, is constructed on a unibody structure. When encountering uneven road conditions, the integrated Prevost chassis remains strong and rigid, preventing any torsional twisting of the chassis floor. Cabinetry, appliances and flooring stay stable.
Prevost Chassis
Other RV Chassis
On other RVs, the chassis is the lower structure, from the floor down. The walls, ceiling and caps are added later.It is not uncommon for other RV chassis to torque, or twist, when encountering uneven road surfaces. This torsion action moves through objects attached to the floor, such as cabinetry, tile and appliances.
STRONG
With some of the highest standards in the industry, the Prevost chassis has passed the Exova Shaker test in order to be used in the Manhattan area to move people.
- The Prevost chassis handles better and provides better responsiveness because of the inherent strength of this top-to-bottom welded chassis, which is rather impervious to the damaging act of twisting and turning.

SAFE
These Bus/RV chassis adhere to the strict safety standards of bus transit laws of Canada and the USA. Unless a vehicle can pass these standards, they are not a bus. No RV on the market currently meets these standards outside of Prevost.
