THE SPARTAN DIFFERENCE

Spartan Chassis is a market-leading manufacturer of custom cab/chassis that has been satisfying customers and fire fighters since 1975. A Spartan is purpose-built from the ground up—designed and built by firefighters for firefighters (27% of all Spartan associates have firefighting experience).

Safety The Spartan Advanced Protection System (APS) is the #1 safety system in the fire industry and includes: four new airbag positions never before offered by any OEM. Side curtain airbags that provide impact and anti-ejection protection, advanced seat belt systems that dramatically reduce restraint system injury.

Customization No other cab/chassis OEM offers more customization. Examples: our top-of-the-line Gladiator offers over 18,000 engineered options. The Metro Star offers over 17,500 options.

The Most Spacious The Spartan cab offers industry leading ergonomics and the most room available and in the places that count. This enables improved visbility, in-cab communications, storage and comfort.

The Best Entry & Egress Industry’s largest cab steps, lowest step height and tallest, widest cab doors allow for safe and efficient entry/egress.

Industry-Leading Maneuverability Our vehicles provide the tightest turning radius and cramp angles allowing the Spartan Chassis customer more access and improved safety.

Highest Quality It all begins at the plant. Spartan manufacturing plants stand apart from the industry. Combine this with world-class quality systems, exceptional engineering and you have the best quality cab/chassis available.

Our cab/chassis are the platform of choice for the premier fire apparatus OEMs and the fire departments they serve.
