Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation 9501-9532

Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation 9501-9532 were 1995 Nova Bus RTS-06 (T80-206) buses. These buses were originally part of a 65-bus order that was delivered throughout May and June 1995 as 9501-9565. However, only 9501-9532 were placed into service, with 9533-9565 immediately sold to the Detroit Department of Transportation as 3200-3232. This was due to the buses being delivered during a time when SMART was criticized by politicians and voters throughout the Detroit area for operating their "rarely-filled" RTS buses through their communities.

The money received from selling off 9533-9565 was used to purchase 86 Champion Centurian buses, which became 95300-95384.
