EVERYTHING BUT STANDARD

The features found on Horton Emergency Vehicles are unlike any other. Rather than give crews and patients the industry standard or leave it up to third-parties to make up the difference, we put some of the most advanced life-saving features on every ambulance that bares our name.

HOPS

Inside every Horton ambulance, crews will find the Horton Occupant Protection System (HOPS), a comprehensive, fully-tested safety system that utilizes two types of airbag deployment, multi-density head protection, and a four-point seatbelt harness to mitigate the severity of rollover crashes. The result? Ambulance safety that's backed by extensive real-world testing.

Cool-Tech

The Cool-Tech HVAC system cools the box down completely in less than nine minutes – more than half the industry average. Plus, by moving the condenser from the front of the box to a recessed pocket on top of the module, crews can enjoy additional body space for lighting, reduced noise, and better protection from debris and other outside elements.

Vi-Tech

With our customized body module mounting system, we’re able to isolate the module from the chassis frame to deliver a quieter and smoother ride for working crews. Even better, our Vi-Tech system is approved by all chassis manufacturers and has a 35G crash-test rating.

i4G

The i4G system puts you in control of the most essential ambulance functions with increased input and output modules, an enhanced LCD touch screen, LED troubleshooting lights, and mobile app connectivity. Together, these features limit ambulance downtime and allow for customized commands.

Quality

Our In-Process Inspection System ensures that any and all defects are detected, repaired, and prevented before your ambulance ever leaves the production facility. In addition to constant quality checks, our team holds daily meetings to address every stage of the production process—all in an effort to deliver ambulances that operate 100% of the time and have the fit and finish that make a Horton stand apart.

Interior Design

Your custom needs are our specialty. At Horton, we’ll design the ambulance box from top to bottom with the space, layout, equipment, and functionality you need to tend to every patient with confidence. And, we’ll anticipate your needs before you do, then go beyond a typical ambulance build to make the Horton experience one to remember, from its everyday advantages to its lasting durability.
