About the Real Mercedes-Benz O-345

Mercedes-Benz Türk is the Turkish subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz Group, operating major bus assembly plants in Aksaray and Hosdere for both domestic and export markets. The O-345 launched in 1998 as a high-floor city bus targeting export markets where durability and ruggedness matter more than ADA-style low-floor accessibility. The platform was later rebranded as the Conecto H within the broader Mercedes Conecto family, with the H designation marking the high-floor variant distinct from the low-floor Conecto LF. The O-345 became extremely popular across Russia, Eastern Europe and the Caucasus region as a robust regional and school transport solution operating well into the 2010s. For the wider story of how the Conecto grew from this rugged high-floor O-345 into Istanbul's default city bus, read The Mercedes-Benz Conecto: the budget city bus that took over Istanbul.
