The Wright Axcess-Ultralow was a low-floor single-decker bus body built on the Scania L113CRL chassis by Wrightbus between 1995 and 1998.

History

The Wright Axcess-Ultralow was introduced in 1995 as a replacement for the Wright Endurance and Wright Pathfinder.[1] Of the 330 produced, FirstGroup purchased 244. North Western purchased 34 and Merseybus 20.[2]

The Axcess-Ultralow was succeeded by the Axcess-Floline in 1998 on the Scania L94UB chassis.

One has been preserved by the North West Vehicle Restoration Trust, Liverpool.[3]
