IC Bus Type C: Conventional
From sizable potholes to boisterous students, a school bus must face
daily punishment. That’s why the CE Series is built to the highest
standards at IC’s production facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Materials have been carefully chosen for their durability and advanced
steel coatings help provide a robust defense against corrosion. In
addition, areas under the hood that require routine maintenance are
conveniently located to help you stay ahead of potential issues.
The IC Type C bus is available with:
– The all new Cummins B6.7 Octane Engine
– Tried and True Cummins B6.7 Diesel Engine
– Fully Battery-Electric platform with the longest range in the industry on either a 210kWh or 315 kWh battery capacity configuration

DURABLE CONSTRUCTION:
- 16-gauge steel body and interior panels for longevity and structural integrity
- 14-gauge steel threaded body bows with continuous runners connecting all roof bows for ruggedness and superior strength
- Stamped parts used wherever possible during construction; provides increased strength and tighter tolerances
- Meets or exceeds FMVSS/CMVSS
ENHANCED CORROSION RESISTANCE:
- New one-piece driver floormat reduces potential corrosion and maintenance costs, plus is easier to keep clean
- Naviflex coated stepwell* provides superior corrosion resistance
- Interior modesty panels treated with 90G/90G galvanized coating and then painted for enhanced corrosion resistance
TIME-SAVING SERVICEABILITY:
- Improved accessibility to routine maintenance items – HVAC filter & air dryer (under the hood), fuel filter now outside frame rail, stepwell heater accessibility from inside stepwell, oil filter now more accessible
- Electrical panel/fuse block arrangement:
- Instrument panel fuses located inside the bus with chassis fuse block with spill resistant cover
- Body fuse block outside of bus in electrical panel under driver’s window
- Diamond Logic® electrical system enables programming of body integration and driver efficiency features; common uses include exterior light check for pretrip inspections, “No Student Left Behind” post-trip inspection monitor, lights on with windshield wipers, and customization of interlocks for dome light
