From Sainte-Claire to New York - Historic contract: New York City receives its first Prevost

SAINTE-CLAIRE, QC, June 25, 2025 /CNW/ - Prevost, a member of the Volvo Group and North America's leading motorcoach manufacturer, is proud to announce the delivery of the very first motorcoach to New York City's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). This marks the beginning of the largest contract in Prevost's history.

"This is a historic moment. The first coach in a long series, destined for the largest public transport agency in North America, has just left our Sainte-Claire plant," said François Tremblay, President of Prevost and Volvo Group Canada. "In addition to generating significant economic spinoffs for our region and offering quality intercity connection transportation to the people of New York, this first delivery is a fine illustration of the relationship of trust between Prevost and the MTA".

On December 19, 2023, Prevost announced the largest contract in its history, winning a major order from New York City's Metropolitan Transportation Authority to manufacture 381 coaches, including a firm order for 250 coaches to be delivered between 2025 and 2026.

"I would like to extend my warmest thanks to everyone involved in achieving this major milestone for Prevost, from our partner in New York to our teams and employees in Sainte-Claire, as well as our suppliers who were able to meet the demand: it was a tremendous team effort!", concluded M. Tremblay.

This major contract has enabled the company to retain and hire over 150 new employees in Sainte-Claire, in the Bellechasse region, since last year. A mandate that will also benefit the company's many Quebec and other suppliers.
