MCI MC-7

Buses and Road Mass Transit Vehicles

The MCI MC-7 was a 40-foot coach that Motor Coach Industries put into production in 1968, the first 40-foot model built by the company. Its introduction just before the MC-6 was the first time MCI ran multiple coach lines in parallel, and by then the company was producing about 500 coaches a year, compared with only 50 in the early 1960s. It was also known as the Challenger, and most Greyhound examples were called the Super 7 Scenicruiser. The MC-8 reached the road in 1973 and replaced it.
