MCI delivers GTL’s limo-style coach at CD/NLA show

Des Plaines, Illinois, USA, October 28, 2025: (TSX:NFI, OTC:NFYEF, TSX:NFI.DB)
Motor Coach Industries (MCI), a subsidiary of NFI Group Inc. and North America’s motorcoach leader—offering in-field technical expertise, 24/7 roadside assistance, and parts support—delivers a new, all-black J4500 luxury motorcoach to GTL Transportation during the CD/NLA Show in Grapevine, Texas.

Now headquartered in Fort Worth, TX, GTL Transportation specializes in executive and corporate transportation throughout the Dallas metro area. The new delivery marks GTL’s 10th MCI J4500 purchase since 2023—each one built to a high-end specification designed to impress discerning clients.

“The chauffeur-driven and executive transportation market continues to present strong opportunities for full-size motorcoaches,” said Tom Wagner, Vice President, Private Sector Sales and Service, MCI. “Operators like GTL Transportation are showcasing how the MCI J4500 fits perfectly into that space—delivering the upscale experience passengers expect with the reliability operators need.”

The J4500 from the CD/NLA show floor features a full slate of premium upgrades, including:

• Chrome mirrors and carbon fiber interior trim
• Diamond-stitched seating
• Multi-color interior lighting
• A 360-degree camera system for enhanced safety

Owner Michael Sorial continues to expand and elevate GTL’s fleet with MCI’s J4500—adding both capacity and luxury appeal to meet rising demand for group executive transport. Earlier this year, the company opened its new facility in Fort Worth, TX, to support its growth.

“This delivery marks our tenth J4500 since 2023 and reflects strong demand for full-size, limo-style coaches in the executive market,” said Michael Sorial, President & CEO, GTL Transportation. “With MCI’s proven platform and our new Fort Worth facility—just five minutes away from DFW Airport—GTL is positioned to serve larger groups without compromising on comfort or class.”

The delivery happened live in the MCI booth at the CD/NLA Show, taking place October 25–28 at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, TX.
