MiWay 1401-1407

MiWay 1401-1407 are New Flyer XD40 buses built in 2014.

On April 16, 2014, Mississauga City Council approved the purchase of 7 40' BRT low floor diesel buses from New Flyer for a total cost of $3,952,706.10. Given that the order size was small and the fact that previous orders had been awarded to New Flyer, it was decided to sole-source the order.

Delivery began in October 2014, and the buses began entering service at the beginning of December 2014. Six of the buses were used for service expansion, while one bus was used as a replacement for 0305 after a fire.

The interior features 38 4ONE Aries passenger seats with Holdsworth Fabrics CAA321 "Cream/blue sixties" fabric. Individual reading lights and power outlets are located throughout the interior. A folding wheelchair ramp is located at the front door of the bus. Rear doors are passenger operated utilizing Vapor's CLASS sensor system. All Windows are flush mounted and of the tip-in transom design manufactured by Arow Global. Heating, ventilation, and cooling are provided by a roof-mounted Thermo King unit.
