Mississauga Transit 9201-9210 were 1992 Orion 05.501 buses.

These buses were originally built as CNG powered buses, powered by a Cummins L10G and ZF Ecomat HP500 powertrain. In 1996, Mississauga Transit decided to abandon the future purchase of CNG buses due to operating costs, and the buses were converted to diesel in 1997.

Retirement began in 2008, and the majority of the buses were replaced by 0801-0844 and 0901-0925. However, 2 buses (9201 and 9208) remained in service until August 2009, being replaced by 0930-0941.
