Arguably the most versatile type of ambulance, Type III combines the unlimited options of Type I with the economic benefits of Type II. Wide, narrow, short, or long modular bodies are built with the same safety standards as the type I’s, greatly exceeding what is required. Type III’s can be on a Mercedes Sprinter, Ford, or Chevrolet cutaway vans.

Type III ambulances are very similar to type I; but, unlike type I, type III ambulances are mounted on a cutaway van chassis rather than having a truck style body. Type III vehicles are mostly used at airports, chemical plants, oil refineries, and when the ambulance has to be equipped with the medical equipment for Advanced Life Support.

Mercedes Sprinter

A Sprinter is a type of chassis used on ambulances. The Mercedes Sprinter is available as a type II or type III ambulance, offering the best driver visibility a chassis can provide. Sprinters have a larger windshield to allow for better visibility and extra seating for more spaciousness up front.

Sprinters are used in emergencies where patients need maximum assistance. Some of the standard medical equipment on a sprinter may include main and secondary folding stretchers, ceiling mounted IV hooks, electrical power outlets, and storage cabinets for medical equipment and supplies.

The latest Sprinter models are equipped with a series of safety features in order to make this type of chassis as safe as it is efficient. Recent Sprinters include features such as:

• • Active brake assist
  • Blind spot assist mirrors
  • Attention assist
  • Active distance assist
  • Traffic sign assist technology
  • LED performance headlights
  • SOS emergency call system
  • Enhanced windshield wipers
  • Active lane keeping assist

The latest specs of the Sprinter Cab Chassis are:

• • 144” wheelbase
  • Standard roof height
  • 6-cyl. diesel powertrain
  • 6,356 lbs payload capacity
  • 11,030 lbs gross vehicle weight rating
  • 7,500 maximum towing capacity

What does a ambulance remount consist of? Remounting is the process of demounting the ambulance conversion from its current chassis onto a new chassis.

We’re able to remount a wide range of ambulance conversions from AEV, MedTec, Horton, Osage, ect….

Chevrolet Ambulances are built to perform in the most crucial moments. We are a certified Chevrolet dealer. Looking for a new or used Chevy ambulance? View our current available vehicles.

Chevrolet offers a chassis for nearly all types of ambulances. The most popular Chevrolet chassis is the G4500, which is used for Type III ambulances and can support the same modular box size as a long wheelbase type I. Utilizing this model, you can optimize both your ambulance needs and your budget.

The next model, the G3500, can be used for a type II van or a smaller type III ambulance. The third option available is the Chevy Silverado C3500. With a short wheelbase for a type I ambulance, this model is a more affordable type I option for a smaller budget.

A name rooted in the history of American motor vehicles, Ford makes dependable vehicles built to last. We carry Ford chassis because we believe in the integrity of the product.

The Ford Transit, available as a type II, comes with many chassis options. T-350, T-250, Gas, Diesel, Mid Roof, High Roof … the choice is yours. The E450, another popular type III chassis, can also support the same modular box size as a long wheel base type I. The E350 with a smaller modular box is another option. If a medium duty ambulance is what you want, the F650 chassis is what you are looking for.

Available in Type I, II, III, and Sprinter models, a Traumahawk ambulance gives hospitals, fire departments, and other first responders the ability to purchase an ambulance that perfectly fits the needs of your department.

Every year, over 240 million 9-1-1 calls are made, most of which dispatch first responders in ambulances to the scene of distress.

Parts of the United States receive well over 200 inches of snowfall every winter season. Navigating roads that are snow-filled, icy, or wet can be both difficult and dangerous. As an emergency response vehicle, it is necessary to be able to depend on an ambulance to travel from point A to point B without any trouble. A four-wheel-drive ambulance enables first responders to travel in all weather elements without worry.

A 4×4 ambulance provides versatility and reliability to response teams and communities who are exposed to a variety of difficult to travel conditions. By being equipped with a high-powered drivetrain that powers four wheels with equal amounts of torque, an ambulance is then able to perform better in low-traction conditions. While four-wheel-drive does cater well to snowy conditions, a 4×4 ambulance is also valuable in mud, loose gravel, and sandy conditions — making this type of ambulance a popular choice for communities in rural areas.

Here at American Response Vehicles, we offer a selection of both new and used 4×4 ambulances for sale. Offering capable vehicles that can handle both extreme weather conditions and fulfill the necessary functions of an emergency response vehicle is our top priority with our inventory.

Aside from our wide selection, we also offer a variety of modification packages in order to ensure you buy the best vehicle for your situation. We are able to alter body styles to fit your desired dimensions, in addition to providing customized wrap design for your ambulance.
