The Blue Bird Vision is a school bus that is manufactured and marketed by Blue Bird Corporation in North America and exported worldwide. In production since 2003, the Vision became the first cowled-chassis bus built on a proprietary chassis designed and manufactured by the same company. While it is sold primarily in a school bus configuration Class A CDL, the Blue Bird Vision is also offered with various commercial and specialty seating and design configurations.
The Vision is produced by Blue Bird Corporation in its Fort Valley Georgia, United States manufacturing facility alongside its Blue Bird All American product line. Prior to 2014, the Blue Bird Vision was also produced in LaFayette, Georgia; this facility is now closed.
