Type 2 Ambulance Vans
There is industry standard, and then there’s AEV. While this statement applies to our manufacturing excellence and hands-on American craftsmanship, it also pertains to the value we pack into every Type 2 ambulance. You’ll be hard pressed to find so many high-end features in other van ambulances. There’s a reason AEV is one of the top choices among Type 2 ambulance manufacturers in the U.S., and it starts with our LEAN manufacturing process.
