The UC Davis Fire Department has a new way to squeeze through campus crowds on its way to medical emergencies: a pint-sized ambulance.
The six-wheeled, all-wheel-drive utility vehicle is roughly the size of a Mini Cooper but can carry EMTs and a patient on a full-sized cot through tight spaces or even off-road.
The vehicle, a MedStat ASAP MS250, will be used mostly for large events, Fire Chief Nate Trauernicht said.

The Dubuque Fire Department had AEV build it two new Type 1 ambulances on Ford F-550 4×4 chassis.
After a crash, Van-Far turned to American Response Vehicles to get it a new American Emergency Vehicles Type 1 ambulance.
“We’ve been without new trucks since 2021,” EMS Director Sam Allen said. “We’ve got trucks with over 200,000 miles on them.”
