'''[[Réseau de transport de la Capitale]] 1601-1636''' are [[Nova Bus LFS HEV]] built in 2016 that will be delivered starting late 2016 or early 2017. They feature electric doors (like the [[Réseau de transport de la Capitale 1651-1673|articulated hybrids]], unlike the [[Réseau de transport de la Capitale 1501-1531|2015 hybrids]]) which have frameless windows themselves and feature a green button to open the door instead of a push bar. Otherwise these are effectively identical to the 2015 hybrids. These entered service on Jan. 14, 2017.

These have a different rear seating arrangement - instead of back to back seating in the rear, there is a pair of bench seats replacing the rear-facing seats while retaining the second-last row of forward-facing seats. There is no reduction in total number of seats.

Note that the total number of units are unknown; the published budget for 2016 calls for 36 standard hybrid buses and up to 1626 have been delivered.

The first several units (1602, 1606, 1610) were seen rolled out at the Nova Bus plant in St-Eustache. However the livery has yet to be applied and windows have not yet fitted (with plastic tape in their place).
