DaimlerChrysler SLF 200s service Toronto airport
The 30-foot vehicles are used as an inter-terminal shuttle service, providing transportation to the airport's passengers and personnel.
The Greater Toronto Airport Authority placed 11 new SLF 200 low-floor buses into service at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Ontario. The 30-foot vehicles, manufactured by DaimlerChrysler Commercial Buses, are used as an inter-terminal shuttle service, providing transportation to the airport's passengers and personnel. The SLF 200's 42-inch-wide front and rear doors make it more accessible for passengers, and its air-operated doors open inward for increased clearance. The full air ride suspension also kneels as low as nine inches, and the bus has an extra-wide ramp for paratransit applications.
