What this mod does
The Busscar Vissta Buss was one of the most recognizable intercity coaches in Brazil in the late nineties. This mod brings the 1999 version to Euro Truck Simulator 2 as a standalone vehicle. The original model is by Impera Mods, who created it for the OMSI 2 community and allows adaptations to be published as long as credit is kept; Cristhian Cardoso now handles the ETS2 updates.
What’s included
- Busscar Vissta Buss 1999 body on a Mercedes-Benz O-400 RSE chassis.
- Available at the mod dealer, without replacing any vehicle in the game.
- A Skin Edit file on the author’s website so you can paint it in any company’s colors.
How you drive a bus in ETS2
Euro Truck Simulator 2 doesn’t have a passenger mode yet: the official Coaches DLC is still in development (everything is in our ETS2 Coaches guide). Until then, a modded bus is bought and driven just like a truck: no stops, no timetables and nobody on board. The author has a separate mod, “Mod de Passageiros”, that adds passengers for several companies, but it’s optional. More options in our list of bus mods for ETS2.
Who it’s for
For anyone looking for a long-distance coach with a classic look who wants to make long highway trips in something other than a truck. It pairs well with South American maps, or with the base map if you just want to cruise around. The author’s website lists it as compatible from 1.51 to 1.61.

Common problems
Can I carry passengers?
Not with this mod alone: in ETS2, modded buses are driven like a truck. The author has a separate passenger mod, and the official Coaches DLC isn't out yet.
What chassis does it use?
A Mercedes-Benz O-400 RSE, according to the author's website.
Is there a download without Steam?
Yes. The author's website also links a manual download on ShareMods, but Steam Workshop is the easiest because it updates automatically.
