NEW YORK, April 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Prevost, a member of the Volvo Group and North America's leading motorcoach manufacturer, is proud to announce that in 2026, the New York City Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) will take delivery of its 1000th Prevost coach.

"This is a historic milestone for us. Just imagine! 1000 Prevost coaches on the road every day, serving the citizens of New York City and its suburbs. Over time, we have developed a genuine relationship of trust with the MTA, and we are very proud of that," said François Tremblay, President of Prevost and Volvo Group Canada.
"We are proud to contribute to reliable, high-quality intercity transportation for New Yorkers. At Volvo Buses, sustainability is central to how we develop our vehicles and support operators in reducing emissions across their fleets," said Anna Westerberg, President of Volvo Buses.
"Modern, dependable, and safe buses are how New York City Transit delivers for over one million daily bus riders in New York City. We look forward to continuing to upgrade our fleet with high quality buses to ensure we are providing safe and efficient service for the New Yorkers who rely on our bus network to get them where they need to go," said MTA NYC Transit President Demetrius Crichlow.
