IC Bus (formerly IC Corporation) is a bus manufacturer in the United States. The company was founded in 2002 as a re-branding of American Transportation Corporation (AmTran). IC Bus traces its roots back to Ward Body Works, which was established in 1933. IC is an acronym for Integrated Coach, which alludes to the fact that the body, chassis, and engine are all produced within the same corporate structure. All bus bodies are manufactured with an International chassis, as it is a wholly owned subsidiary of Navistar International Corporation. IC specializes in school buses, MFSAB buses, and commercial transit buses derived from their school bus designs.
