The Diesel
Designed around efficiency and Ontario EMS needs, the MX 152 is the only Demers Type III ambulance powered by a diesel engine. Its narrower, lower-profile footprint brings a more European-style format to Canadian roads, offering fuel savings and confident handling in every environment.
Inside, a surprisingly spacious layout with expanded storage compartments gives paramedics the room and organization they need for demanding calls. Balanced and efficient, the MX 152 delivers a compact exterior with a genuinely capable interior.
