Réseau de transport de la Capitale 1151-1172 are Nova Bus LFS Artic buses built in late 2010 and delivered in December of that year. This order is part of a large contract between the ATUQ and Nova Bus signed in 2007. The contract was for 322 buses for nine Quebec agencies with delivery from 2009 to 2012.[1]

These buses are used on the Metrobus routes and in the corresponding livery. The buses sport a lime green and grey livery with Metrobus graphics. Inside, the buses sport a colour scheme similar to their exterior. Flooring, lower side walls, and ceiling are in grey, and the area around the windows are in black. The articulation joint has a soft covering on the bellows. The majority of the seating is American Seating InSight models in grey. The remaining seats are those built into the bus structure and the flip-up seats at the front. All seats have lime green inserts with custom Metrobus logos on alternating seats.

Most units were temporarily pulled from the road on February 26, 2025 following fires on 1168 and 1256.
