As the demand for affordable and convenient travel options rises across North America, Greyhound, a Flix North America brand and the largest provider of intercity bus services, has introduced a fleet of 60 brand-new buses, marking a major step in its commitment to transform the passenger experience.
Already serving popular Northeast routes, including New York to Boston and Philadelphia, these new buses are part of Greyhound’s broader initiative to upgrade its existing fleet with hundreds of buses in the next few years. This effort aims to make intercity buses a top choice for more travelers seeking cost-effective, eco-friendly long-distance transportation.
The new buses deliver an upgraded travel experience designed to meet the needs of modern travelers seeking hassle-free and budget-friendly travel options. With features like ergonomic seating, enhanced connectivity, and advanced safety technology, Greyhound is redefining the intercity travel experience while keeping comfort, safety, and affordability at the forefront.
“With redesigned interiors and state-of-the-art safety features, these buses are setting a new standard for bus travel in North America,” said Rodney Surber, chief operating officer at Greyhound. “Our goal is to make bus travel top of mind for long-distance travelers who want an eco-friendly and stress-free alternative to driving or flying.”
The new fleet offers several enhancements designed to make every journey more comfortable and convenient:

- Enhanced connectivity: Every seat is equipped with free WiFi and 12V outlets, allowing travelers to stay connected, work, or stream entertainment during their trip.
