WINNIPEG, MANITOBA, JUNE 30, 2020: <\/strong>(TSX:NFI) Motor Coach Industries (MCI), a U.S. subsidiary of NFI Group Inc., (“NFI”), one of the world’s largest independent global bus manufacturers, has completed a delivery of nine new 2020 MCI J4500 coaches to Transport Cl\u00e9ment B\u00e9gin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based in Sainte-Germaine-Boule in Western Quebec, Canada, Transport Cl\u00e9ment B\u00e9gin purchased the new J4500s to shuttle mining personnel nearly 100 miles to a remote site in Northern Quebec seven days a week. These are the very first new MCI coaches for the leading charter and school bus company, named after the founder, and now its third generation of family leadership and 61st year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Built with a semi-monocoque low-corrosion stainless steel body, the MCI J4500 is ideally suited to long-distance employee shuttles. Offering a modern, spacious interior and best-in-class legroom, Cl\u00e9ment B\u00e9gin’s new coaches have a 52-passenger seating capacity. The model’s lighter weight, next-generation Cummins X12 engine, new for model year 2020, improves fuel economy and extends the J4500\u2019s low total cost of operation even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To withstand Northern Quebec\u2019s remote roads and cold weather conditions, Cl\u00e9ment B\u00e9gin added a Spheros heater that pre-heats the engine to eliminate cold engine starts and accelerate window defrosting and defogging. The company also added heated taillights; LED headlights; and MCI\u2019s optional Severe Duty package to assure smooth driving during the coldest months of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Severe Duty package offers supplemental engine air filters, drive and front axle mud flaps, engine compartment under pans and a transmission shroud. It also includes a differential breather tube shield to protect compartments from road debris and guard against ice and snow, increasing the reliability of electrical connections. A 3M paint film minimizes small-stone damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We appreciate the confidence that Transport Cl\u00e9ment B\u00e9gin has placed in us and we look forward to their continued business and servicing them from our Montreal Service Center,” said Patrick Scully, MCI Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Customer Service. “We understand their operational environment and our Severe Duty Package will allow the vehicle to operate in extreme weather and road conditions.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Operating under current COVID-19 policies and protocols, Transport Cl\u00e9ment B\u00e9gin limits the number of passengers to 12 on each coach and has added protective vinyl partitions between seats. All of its coaches are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each trip, using a fogging system designed to kill pathogens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
