Delivery of these 50 units began in April 2003. The seating for this order was slightly different, as it included metal-backed seat frames rather than plastic. Originally powered by Cummins ISC engines and Allison B400R5 transmissions, the vast majority had Cummins ISL engines installed in place of the original ISC. Other retrofits include blue ETS insignia seat inserts, Smartbus GPS & stop announcement systems, interior and exterior cameras, operator's compartment shields & A/C units, and smart card readers for the ARC fare system. As of November 2023, all of these buses are in active service except for #4368, which has been MIA since May of 2022.
