Long-lasting durability comes easy for the StarTrans Senator by Supreme. That’s because it’s one of the few buses that uses a combination of steel cage construction for optimum safety and overall structural strength and a tough fiberglass skin to resist stains, scratches and corrosion. Plus, fiberglass-reinforced panel (FRP) sidewalls eliminate exterior noise and are extremely strong and rugged to withstand difficult road conditions.
