The '''[[Den Oudsten Bussen]] B85''' was a low-floor transit bus available in Europe. The bus had a low floor front section and a raised rear section after the rear door. This allowed for the easy boarding of mobility aides such as wheelchairs and walkers. In 1987, the bus was re-designated [[Den Oudsten Bussen B86#B86 Low Floor|B86 Low Floor]].<ref>http://www.traminfo.nl/busserie85.html</ref>
