About Irizar Buses
Irizar is based in the Basque Country of northern Spain and is one of Europe's longest-established coachbuilders. Its integral i6 coach was adapted for North American charter operators with US-spec drivetrains and lift options.
What Buyers Look for in Used Irizar Buses
Coach buyers usually compare mileage (many charter coaches run 50,000+ miles a year), engine and transmission service records, lift condition on ADA units, and body-parts availability. On a lower-volume import brand, confirm where you'll source glass, body panels and electrical parts before you buy. Irizar's US-spec coach is the i6. The Century name was used mainly in Europe and Mexico, so on a coach listed as a Century, check the FMVSS and EPA compliance labels.

The Irizar ie bus electric city bus comes in lengths from 10.8 to 18 meters, alongside the tram-styled ie tram. North American buyers mainly see the 45-foot Irizar i6.
How do Irizar coaches compare with MCI and Prevost?
Irizar is a low-volume import in North America, while MCI and Prevost are the dominant motorcoach brands with much larger parts and service networks. MCI is owned by NFI Group and builds in Manitoba and North Dakota; Prevost is owned by the Volvo Group and builds in Quebec. The US-market Irizar i6 is a Spanish integral coach, but it uses a Cummins diesel and Allison automatic, drivetrain brands familiar to North American coach shops.
Who sells and services Irizar coaches in the United States?
Irizar coaches entered the US through INA Bus Sales of Las Vegas, Nevada, Irizar's exclusive US distributor for sales and aftersales. Irizar USA has since been listed as the authorized i6 dealership. At launch, authorized Irizar service centers were named in Burlingame, California; Orlando, Florida; Las Vegas; Dallas; Faribault, Minnesota; and Pine Brook, New Jersey. These arrangements date from the late 2010s, so confirm current contacts.
How much does an Irizar coach cost?
Irizar does not publish US list prices, and used Irizar coaches are listed too rarely to set a stable market price. Pricing depends on model year, mileage, ADA lift equipment and service history. A practical benchmark is other 45-foot coaches of the same age: on BusesForSale.com, 2016 MCI J4500 coaches have typically been listed at about $265,000 to $305,000.
