The Motor Coach Industries MC-6 was a motor coach produced from 1968-1969. Greyhound had helped design it and intended it as a replacement for the Scenicruiser. Unlike the MC-7 it was an entirely different ultra-modern design and MCI's first 102 inch wide bus. The prototypes had the third axle covered by a body panel.
102 were built in total.
