The Motor Coach Industries 102-EL3 was the original coach in the E-Series lineup. It made its first debut in Hawaii during the American Bus Association's annual meeting in 1996.[1] and became MCI's flagship coach.
It was originally available only with framed windows (which most 102-EL3s have), but was later updated to have frameless windows as an option.
Distinguishing features on the 102-EL3 coach include a "R" badge (for "Renaissance") on the front of the coach, as well as the older "MCI" logo embossed on the right side of the rear bumper.
