Nova Bus is a bus manufacturing company based in Saint-Eustache, Quebec, Canada. The company is now owned by Prevost, which is a division of Volvo Buses. Nova Bus was created by a reorganization of the transit bus division of MCI in 1993, and continued the production of the Classic model (which had started by General Motors Diesel Division Buses in 1982)until MCI bought the transit division in 1987. The RTS model, originating from General Motors, was also acquired by NovaBus.
They currently produce a single product, the Nova LFS, a low-floor urban transit bus, which was introduced in 1995. The Classic model was discontinued in 1998.
