The MCI MC-6, nicknamed the Supercruiser, was a 40-foot, 102-inch wide coach that Motor Coach Industries designed and developed for Greyhound and built exclusively for it. The first prototype was delivered to Greyhound in 1967 with an all-stainless-steel frame and a V-12 engine, and it was the first 102-inch wide bus MCI produced, so wide that it was illegal to operate in most states. It used the same rear suspension and Detroit Diesel power train as the GMC PD4501 Scenicruiser. Only two prototypes and 100 production coaches were built.
