In order to address the crowding issue on Viva [[VIVA Blue|Blue]], more articulated buses were needed. This order was approved in late February 2006, purchased for a total of $4.1 million. $1.4 million of this order was covered by the then-called Ontario Transit Vehicles Program, while $2.6 million was covered by gas tax revenues.

These buses run mostly on Viva [[VIVA Blue|Blue]] and sometimes on Viva [[VIVA Purple|Purple]]. While administrative wise all buses are stored at York BRT's Newmarket garage, some do get sent to the Vaughan garage to provide weekday service on Viva Purple.
