Marcopolo Torino LN Articulado — Brazilian Scania S113 Bus Mod

Marcopolo Torino LN Articulado — 1990s Brazilian Scania S113 Articulated City Bus Mod for Proton Bus Simulator

The Marcopolo Torino LN Articulado is a nostalgic Brazilian articulated city bus from the early 1990s, pairing the Marcopolo Torino LN body family on Scania's high-floor S113 articulated chassis. Famous among paulistano transit enthusiasts as a thunderous "Heavy Metal" of 90s Brazilian public transport, the Torino LN is recognized by its Scania DS11 direct-exhaust engine soundtrack and the classic high-floor articulated silhouette that defined São Paulo's high-capacity corridor service before low-floor accessibility took over the segment.

Highlights and Features

• Drive the nostalgic Marcopolo Torino LN body on Scania S113 articulated chassis, the iconic 1990s Brazilian articulated city bus.
• Experience the thunderous Scania DS11 direct-exhaust engine soundtrack that earned the platform its "Heavy Metal" status among Brazilian enthusiasts.
• Operate the high-floor articulated configuration that dominated São Paulo high-capacity corridor service through the 1990s.
• Add a piece of Brazilian articulated bus heritage to your fleet — the Torino LN was Marcopolo's flagship articulated body of the early 1990s.

Compatibility and Technical Details

About the Marcopolo Torino LN and 1990s Brazilian Articulated Transit

Marcopolo is the Brazilian coachbuilder headquartered in Caxias do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, and one of Latin America's main urban-bus body manufacturers. The Torino LN is Marcopolo's flagship articulated urban-bus body family of the early 1990s, with the LN designation marking the late-generation styling of the Torino lineage. Paired with the Scania S113 articulated chassis — the Swedish-Brazilian heavy-duty articulated platform that anchored São Paulo corridor service through the 1990s — the Torino LN delivered the high-capacity passenger throughput that justified articulated procurement on paulistano corridors before BRT systems took over the segment. The combination earned its "Heavy Metal" nickname among Brazilian transit enthusiasts for the Scania DS11 inline-six direct-exhaust engine soundtrack that gave the platform its unmistakable acoustic signature. The Torino LN articulated represents a landmark of Brazilian articulated bus history alongside the Caio Top Bus biarticulated and the later low-floor Caio Millennium articulated configurations.
