OCALA, FL – April 13, 2023 – E-ONE, a subsidiary of REV Group, Inc., and a leading manufacturer of fire apparatus, announces the Boston Fire Department has ordered six more E-ONE aerials as part of a new three-year contract with Greenwood Emergency Vehicles, the exclusive dealer for E-ONE in Massachusetts.
This latest order for six E-ONE Metro 100’ aerials will increase the total to 32 E-ONE aerials ordered by the Boston Fire Department since 2016.
The LTH (low travel height) Metro 100’ ladder truck is a perfect design for the tight city streets in one of the country’s oldest cities, and the 10’ 8” low overall height ensures that every fire truck will fit in any firehouse in the city, and under the low bridges of Storrow Drive, a major crosstown roadway in Boston.
Some of the top features of these trucks include:
Short 220” wheelbase and 38’ 7” overall length allows for great maneuverability in the city
Narrow 11’ jack spread
Electronic stability control
Severe duty interior including severe duty dash, overhead, and door panels
“Inner City” bumpers with angled corners for improved turning radius
Zinc flame spray coating on the integral torque box for corrosion protection in the damp New England climate
Storage for 265’ of ground ladders including a 50’, 40’, (2) 35’, 28, 20’ 16’ 14’ 10’ and a 17’ Little Giant ladder
Custom Whelen warning and scene lighting package
“We remain grateful and continue to be humbled by the faith that the “First In The Nation” Fire Department has placed in Greenwood and Emergency One, and we certainly consider it a privilege and an honor to work with them,” said Mark MacDonald, President, Greenwood Emergency Vehicles.
“It is a privilege to help the Boston Fire Department better serve its citizens with fire apparatus designed to meet the city’s specific needs,” said Larry Daniels, Director of Sales, E-ONE. “The Metro 100 – with its low travel height, short wheelbase and narrow 11’ jack spread – is the perfect truck for this big city department and we look forward to working with them for years to come.”

GROVE CITY, OH – March 16, 2023 – Horton Emergency Vehicles, a subsidiary of REV Group Inc., and a leader in ambulance safety, announces the launch of Horton Occupant Protection System™ (HOPS) featuring MBrace™, the first of its kind protection for first responders. MBrace is a patent-pending advanced airbag safety system designed specifically to protect emergency care providers inside the patient compartment during frontal impacts, in addition to ambulance rollovers. Horton is the first and only brand in the ambulance industry to offer MBrace. All Horton vehicle orders placed on or after April 1, 2023, will include the MBrace system as standard equipment.
Independent data indicates that nearly 80% of accidents with ambulances that resulted in fatalities and serious injuries were frontal impacts*. MBrace was developed to provide more protection against head and neck injuries during frontal impact collisions, in addition to ambulance rollovers. MBrace integrates an airbag into an innovative multi-point restraint that both protects emergency care providers while allowing them the mobility and freedom to work. Designed and engineered by IMMI and tested extensively with Horton ambulances at the Center for Advanced Product Evaluation (CAPE), MBrace takes EMS protection to a new level.
“Pioneering safety is in Horton’s DNA, and our partnerships with industry leaders, such as IMMI, have enabled us to keep advancing the level of safety that is available to emergency care providers”, stated Mike Albers, Vice President and General Manager for Horton Emergency Vehicles. “We are excited to offer MBrace as standard equipment. Improving the safety of our ambulances is one of our highest priorities.”
Customers who already have a Horton ambulance on order can work with their Horton dealer to add MBrace to their order, depending on how far along it is in the design process. In addition, MBrace will be available for Horton remounts that are performed at the REV Remount Center in Grove City, OH.
“The launch of MBrace is the culmination of years of research and development with partners such as Horton, who share our goal of raising the bar on safety through innovation,” said Larry Gray, CEO of IMMI.
The MBrace system will be on display in the Horton Emergency Vehicles booth #4920 and the IMMI booth #4632 at FDIC International in Indianapolis, Indiana from April 27 – 29, 2023. Find out more information about MBrace at www.hortonambulance.com.
