IC Bus launches CE series

IC Bus debuts next-gen CE Series bus with electric powertrain option.

IC Bus announced the launch of its next-generation CE Series school bus, a newly redesigned and updated version of its flagship CE Series originally launched 20 years ago. The company said the CE Series provides customers with efficient operations and improved total cost of ownership (TCO) with new safety features.

“Our CE Series has remained best-in-class for decades; we have taken into consideration the legacy features our drivers love and built upon them to enhance both operator and rider experience,” Justina Morosin, vice president and general manager, IC Bus, said. “Additionally, we offer an electric powertrain to our customers to aid in achieving their own sustainability goals while maintaining the efficiency needed in day-to-day operations.”

Electric Powertrain Availability

The electric powertrain available in the all-new CE Series offers three levels of selectable regenerative braking and comes standard with alternating current (AC) and direct current fast charging (DCFC) readiness and a digital instrument cluster.
