To reinforce its commitment to the market, Irizar is creating its own company — Irizar USA LLC — which will be headquartered in Las Vegas.

The company is already well-positioned to carry forward the distribution and aftersales support of the Irizar i6 motorcoach by recruiting the well-qualified team members that have been a part of the initial chapter of introducing the brand to the market.

Irizar USA will move forward with the marketing, sales, and support of the Irizar i6 motorcoach, an integral chassis designed 45-foot luxury motorcoach, but a new phase will now start with renewed enthusiasm.

Irizar is a world class leading coach manufacturer with 129 years of experience and over 3,300 employees, and Irizar USA is a direct extension of Irizar. The establishment of Irizar USA is designed to ensure sustainable success in the U.S. market and to operate in a manner consistent with the guiding principles and core values of the Irizar brand: Safety, Reliability, Aftersales Service, Cost of Ownership, Customization, Passenger Comfort, and Innovation.

Irizar will thus continue its strategy of working elbow to elbow with operators to provide them with top quality products and services tailored to their needs and position the company in the market as a premium coach brand.

The range of products in the current catalog includes the 45-foot i6 motorcoach, which comes in two height versions, with the SuperCargo version offering best in class storage capacity. The Irizar i6 motorcoach has a Cummins and Allison power train and combines reliability, safety, and profitability with service that can meet any requirements.
