Mauco M2000 Urbano Rounded — Costa Rica Urban Bus Mod

Mauco M2000 Urbano Rounded Lights — Costa Rican Carroceria Urban Bus Mod for Proton Bus Simulator

The Mauco M2000 Urbano is a true icon of Costa Rican public transport, built by Carroceria Mauco at the San José plant on Hyundai HM1620 or Mercedes-Benz commercial chassis platforms. This Proton Bus Simulator mod brings the classic rounded-headlights variant of the M2000 into PBSU — the first-generation styling that anchored Costa Rican urban transit through the early 2000s, before the squared-lights facelift variant entered service. Configured for the mountainous routes around San José and the Greater Metropolitan Area, the M2000 Urbano features authentic engine sounds and the local carroceria customization that distinguishes Costa Rican fleet operations from neighboring Central American countries.

Highlights and Features

• Drive a true icon of Costa Rican public transport from Carroceria Mauco, the country's main urban-bus body manufacturer.
• Operate on the Hyundai HM1620 or Mercedes-Benz commercial chassis platforms that Costa Rican operators procure for municipal fleets.
• Experience the classic rounded-headlights variant that distinguishes the first-generation M2000 from the later squared-lights facelift.

Compatibility and Technical Details

About Carroceria Mauco and the M2000

Carroceria Mauco is one of Costa Rica's main urban-bus body manufacturers, building bus bodies on imported Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz, and other commercial chassis platforms for the Costa Rican domestic transit market. The M2000 Urbano is the company's flagship urban-bus product line, anchoring municipal fleets in San José and across the Greater Metropolitan Area (GAM) where the country's population and route density concentrate. The rounded-headlights variant represents the first-generation M2000 styling that defined Costa Rican urban transit through the early 2000s, before the squared-lights facelift updated the front fascia for the family's later production run. The Hyundai HM1620 chassis is the dominant Korean-import urban platform across Central American transit operators, with Mercedes-Benz commercial chassis filling the parallel European-import lane for fleet diversification.
