Next-Gen Powertrains
School bus fleets are rapidly transitioning to electric. In most cases, it makes perfect sense thanks to consistent routes, a central depot to charge and readily accessible funding assistance.
But not all routes or districts are suited for electric–and that’s why we offer both options.
The tried-and-true Cummins® B6.7L provides the power you need with a low total cost of ownership and impressive uptime.
Those who choose the Next Generation Electric CE Series can rest easy knowing that it has been designed from the get-go to run on electric propulsion with its incredible torque and quiet, calm-inducing ride.
Whichever direction you go, the future has never looked brighter.
Crash Mitigation, Safety and Stability Controls
Of all the requirements IC Bus® engineers are tasked with when designing a new bus, one rises above the rest: It must be a safe means of transportation for the children who ride inside. It’s an enormous responsibility and something that we never take for granted.
That’s why the next generation CE Series includes the very latest in safety technology, including standard electronic stability control (air brake models). These features are essential when it comes to empowering the driver with critical information and keeping the children riding inside out of harm’s way.
