The Next Generation
IC Bus® CE Series Bus
AHEAD OF ITS CLASS
When it comes to transporting our most precious cargo, only the best will do. That means a bus that has some of the latest safety technology, is built with high-quality materials, offers forward-thinking propulsion options and provides drivers with everything they need to be successful.
It means a company willing to go above and beyond all expectations with engineers who are never satisfied with the status quo. Introducing the Next Generation CE Series. And welcome to a new era in school transportation.

Electric CE Series

Diesel & Gasoline CE Series
A Bus Built To Last
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 our 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.
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


Time-Saving Serviceability
- Diamond Logic® electrical system enables programming of body integration and driver efficiency features; common uses include exterior light check for pre-trip inspections, “No Student Left Behind” post-trip inspection monitor, lights on with windshield wipers, and customization of interlocks for dome light
- Improved accessibility to routine maintenance items including the HVAC filter & air dryer (under the hood), fuel filter (outside frame rail), stepwell heater (inside stepwell), and the oil filter
- Electrical panel/fuse block arrangement:
- Instrument panel fuses are easily accessed inside the bus with chassis fuse block with spill-resistant cover
- Body fuse block outside of bus in electrical panel under driver’s window


Enhanced Corrosion Resistance
- New one-piece driver floor mat 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
