Saf-T-Liner® EFX Activity Bus. Enhanced efficiency and maneuverability.
The Saf-T-Liner® EFX is a front-engine, transit-style bus that is versatile and an excellent value. With plenty of room for up to 90 passengers and a wider loading aisle, this activity bus is a great choice for large groups, from football teams and high school bands to youth groups and field trips. Thomas Built also designed the cockpit for driver comfort and safety with ample leg room and optimized access to controls. For easy routine maintenance, our engine cover allows quick, tool-free access to the engine, fluids and belts.
Thomas Built listens to drivers, mechanics and transportation directors to help us develop better buses. And with Carolina Thomas as the authorized Thomas dealer for North Carolina, there’s always support nearby when you need it.
