The Wright Group’s originality, cutting edge technology and continual strive to innovate drive our success. Having established a platform in the PSV industry (c.1988), William Wright recognised that buses needed to be both passenger friendly and capable of serving ALL the community, from young parents with children and buggies to the elderly and handicapped. Hence, in 1993, The Wright Group was the first British manufacturer to design, develop and market a fully accessible low floor, easily accessible, public bus in the United Kingdom. Later, in 1999, we were also the first in the United Kingdom to engineer and build an articulated city bus.

Wright Group manufactures buses for many niche market segments including midi, middleweight, full size city bus, school bus, double deck, and Bus Rapid Transit vehicles utilising both diesel and hybrid electric drivelines. Notable milestones include the launch of the world’s first hybrid-electric double deck at London’s City Hall in 2006 and the development of the ground breaking StreetCar RTV, a unique combination of both Bus Rapid Transit and hybrid electric technologies; fifty of these vehicles now in operation in Las Vegas! Today, every fourth bus sold in the United Kingdom on a PSV chassis is made in Ballymena.
