Industry-leading Group of Ambulance Manufacturers
Driven by the same mission and vision, we are better together.
Discover the Crestline Coach Ltd. heritage.
In 1975, Crestline Coach Ltd. was founded by three Saskatchewan entrepreneurs eager to prove to the world that they could build a better ambulance. Based in Saskatoon, SK, Canada, Crestline has become one of North America’s leading ambulance and specialty vehicle manufacturers. We are ahead of the industry worldwide in emergency vehicle safety, cutting-edge manufacturing processes, and exceptional sales and service. With glowing recommendations of manufacturing quality and customer-driven service, we are honoured to have many faithful customers, including governments and emergency fleets.
Early in its history, Crestline diversified its activities and started selling shuttle buses. Over the years, the bus division has leveraged the brand’s expertise to offer a turnkey approach to paratransit and public transit customers. With customized products, outstanding consulting, and after-sales service, the bus team has established itself as the only nationwide dealer in the country. Dedicated to their customers, driven to promote universal accessibility, and ready to deliver to even the most remote communities, our bus salespeople are the only ones able to deliver a bus tailored to your needs and stand by it.

With nearly 50 years in the industry, many business awards for excellence, and over 16,000 vehicles built and delivered, Crestline continues to provide top-quality specialty vehicles within our community and North America.
