The Motor Coach Industries D45 CRT belongs to the D series of the North American coach and commuter bus maker MCI. The vehicle from 2020 runs on diesel and is placed in the US emissions rules in the class of Class 8 vocational vehicles, meaning commercial vehicles other than vocational tractors.

A CO₂ limit of 222 g/tkm (US) applies to this classification. The value refers to transport work in grams per tonne-kilometre and makes the vehicle comparable with other commercial vehicles of its class.

MCI launched the D series as a new generation of its coaches and also built a battery-electric variant on this platform. The D45 CRT is the conventional diesel version within this family and thus the reference point for its electric sibling, the D45 CRTe. When comparing data, note that the limit refers to the US regulation.
