MCI MC-5

The MCI MC-5 was a 35-foot rear-engine coach that Motor Coach Industries built from 1963, the model that took the company into the United States market through its new plant at Pembina, North Dakota. It was powered by Detroit Diesel 6V71 and 8V71 engines with Spicer four-speed mechanical transmissions, and was sold to Greyhound in the United States. Its development led to the MC-5A, the MC-5B built from 1971, and the MC-5C, and the later versions took on the more modern front-end styling they shared with the MC-8. Canadian examples were designated MCC-5 and the prototype MCX-5.
