Minibus Lite S3

The Proven, Lightweight Minibus Designed for Schools

The Minibus Lite™ is the UK’s first and original lightweight school minibus—designed and built by GM Coachwork nearly 15 years ago. While others have tried to imitate it, none have undergone the same extensive safety testing or proven track record.

This wheelchair-accessible model comes fitted with a Type Approved compliant wheelchair ramp and four removable rear seats. With a simple unclick, you can create space for a wheelchair passenger—or repurpose the area for sports kit, luggage, or equipment. Best of all, the Minibus Lite™ can be driven on a standard car licence, saving your school thousands in costly D1 training.

Engineered for the demands of daily school transport, the rear cabin features a heavy-duty floor, hard-backed seats, all-age, three-point seat belts, OEM-quality window surrounds, and a fully lined and carpeted interior for lasting comfort and durability.

With more safety testing than any other lightweight minibus and over 7,000 units sold nationwide, Minibus Lite™ continues to be the trusted choice for schools, colleges, and community groups.

We offer nationwide on-site demonstrations, low monthly contract hire with full maintenance included, and the support of a dedicated after-sales team plus a fleet of mobile service engineers—keeping your school transport reliable and road-ready.
