MAN Lion's City M (A47) – 10.5m German Midibus Mod
MAN Lion's City M (A47) – 10.5m German Midibus Mod for Proton Bus Simulator
The MAN Lion's City M (A47) is the midibus variant of MAN's flagship Lion's City urban bus family — a 10.5-meter platform that keeps the full width and full passenger-saloon ergonomics of the standard 12m Lion's City but shortens the wheelbase for routes where turning radius constraints rule out the longer model. This Proton Bus Simulator mod brings the A47 into PBSU with both 2-door and 3-door body configurations, suiting suburban feeder routes alongside higher-density urban services where tight turns and high capacity have to coexist.
Highlights and Features
- Drive the 10.5-meter MAN Lion's City M (A47) midibus, the short-wheelbase variant of MAN's flagship Lion's City family
- Choose between 2-door and 3-door body configurations to match suburban or higher-density urban service profiles
- Maneuver tight turns with the short wheelbase while keeping full-width passenger capacity that minibus mods cannot match
- Operate on European urban or suburban routes where the standard 12m Lion's City is geometrically too long
- Experience the MAN diesel powertrain audio that defines the Lion's City family across its compact, standard, and articulated variants
- Benefit from optimized textures that keep frame rates stable on Android Proton Bus Simulator builds

Performance and Features
About the Real MAN Lion's City M (A47)
The MAN Lion's City is MAN Truck & Bus AG's urban bus platform, in production since 1996 across MAN's plants in Salzgitter, Plauen, and Starachowice. The Lion's City family covers a wide range of body lengths and configurations under MAN's internal A-code nomenclature — A21 for the standard 12m, A23 for the 18m articulated, A26 for the longer 12m variant, and A47 for the short 10.5m midibus that this mod represents. The M (Midi) variant addresses the operator need for a bus that retains the standard Lion's City interior width and ergonomics but fits routes where the longer A21 cannot turn — typical for European historic-district services and lower-density suburban feeders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the A47 code mean on the MAN Lion's City?
A47 is MAN Truck & Bus AG's internal type code for the 10.5m midibus variant of the Lion's City platform. The A-code series covers every Lion's City variant — A21 for 12m standard, A23 for 18m articulated, A47 for the short midibus.
Does the mod include both 2-door and 3-door configurations?
Yes. The A47 mod ships with both 2-door and 3-door body options so you can match suburban feeder profiles (typically 2-door) or higher-density urban services (typically 3-door) within the same Proton Bus Simulator installation.
Is the Lion's City M (A47) compatible with PBSU on Android?
Yes. The mod is texture-optimized for mobile and runs on both Android and Windows builds of Proton Bus Simulator. Install by extracting the .zip into the PBSU buses folder.
