The Metropolitan, introduced in 2002, is a transit seating model produced by American Seating. The Metropolitan features pre-formed molded fiberglass construction with inserts attached to the sitting area. The ergonomic fiberglass structure with waterfall edge is mounted to a welded steel frame. The grab rails at the top may be either stainless steel or thermoplastic. The Metropolitan is able to feature the EZ fold system with A.R.M. Securement System to accommodate passengers utilizing mobility aids. In 2020, the Metropolitan was discontinued, with American Seating offering the InSight Classic and InSight Prime in its place.
