The '''[[New Flyer Industries]] D30LF''' is the 30 foot version of the [[New Flyer Industries D40LF|D40LF]]. It comes with all the features of the [[New Flyer Industries D40LF|D40LF]], however, it does not feature a rear door.
The '''[[New Flyer Industries]] D30LF''' was a diesel-powered, 30-foot transit bus and part of New Flyer's [[New Flyer Industries Low Floor|first line of low floor buses]]. The D30LF shares its design with the [[New Flyer Industries D40LF|D40LF]]. However due to its layout, the D30LF does not feature a rear door.
 
After the 2009 model year, New Flyer discontinued the LF series of buses with the traditional style front and rear ends.  The D30LF was originally expected to be replaced by the [[New Flyer Industries D30LFR|D30LFR]] in New Flyer's lineup, however it never received any orders and only exists as a demonstrator. It was eventually replaced indirectly by the [[New Flyer Industries MD30|MD30]] of the [[New Flyer Industries MiDi|MiDi]] series designed by [[Alexander Dennis]].

The New Flyer Industries D30LF was a diesel-powered, 30-foot transit bus and part of New Flyer's first line of low floor buses. The D30LF shares its design with the D40LF. However due to its layout, the D30LF does not feature a rear door.

After the 2009 model year, New Flyer discontinued the LF series of buses with the traditional style front and rear ends. The D30LF was originally expected to be replaced by the D30LFR in New Flyer's lineup, however it never received any orders and only exists as a demonstrator. It was eventually replaced indirectly by the MD30 of the MiDi series designed by Alexander Dennis.
