www.chinabuses.org: IC Bus unveiled their first fully integrated small shuttle bus, the IC Bus AC Series. The fully integrated IC Bus AC Series features a proprietary design which allows for bumper-to-bumper coverage and ensures customers have a single point of contact with only onenetwork, IC Bus. This one-stop-shop approach provides everything bus operators need throughout the lifecycle of the bus, including financing, parts, service and warranties.

The AC Series is in a class by itself when it comes to durability, carrying a lifecycle approximately twice as long as similar small shuttles in the industry, IC Bus claims. Sharing a platform with the International TerraStar truck, which was introduced this past spring, the AC Series is built to last, featuring frame rails rated to 80,000 PSI, better than any other manufacturer in the industry. It also brings good serviceability with its full-tilt hood, allowing for unobstructed access to the engine compartment.

The AC Series also comes with an abundance of features that allow a unique customization to meet a fleet`s exact needs. From tour and charter operations, hotel or rental car shuttles, paratransit operations, day care or public transportation, whatever the operation, the fully integrated AC Series will be a game changer for how bus operators purchase, maintain and operate their fleet.

The AC Series bus is powered by the 220 hp 6.4-liter MaxxForce® 7, which delivers outstanding fuel economy and low overall cost of ownership. It combines a 28,000-psi (1,900-bar) high-pressure common-rail fuel system, dual sequential turbocharger system and a high strength compacted graphite iron (CGI) block. The MaxxForce 7 is matched with an Allison 1000 Series transmission for optimum power output.

The MaxxForce 7 is built with MaxxForce Advanced EGR emissions technology, the only no-hassle emissions technology available in the bus industry.
