Mercedes-Benz O405G – 18m High-Floor Articulated Bus Mod

Highlights and Features

• Drive an 18-meter articulated high-floor city bus that captures the mechanical character of late-1980s Mercedes-Benz engineering.
• Operate the pusher-configuration drivetrain that powered the O405G across Germany, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Australia.
• Master the articulated joint with realistic bending physics, ideal for tight urban corridors and BRT-style routes.
• Enjoy mobile-optimized textures and geometry tuned for smooth Android performance on Proton Bus Simulator.
• Add a slice of Daimler-Benz Mannheim heritage to your fleet — the high-floor counterpart to the era-defining O405 rigid.

About the Real Mercedes-Benz O405G

The Mercedes-Benz O405G is the articulated, high-floor sibling of the O405 city bus, produced by Daimler-Benz at the Mannheim plant in Germany from 1987 until 2001. At roughly 17.7 meters long, it carried high passenger loads across a hinged two-section body and became a familiar sight in transit fleets in Germany, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Australia. The O405G represents the last generation of high-floor articulated city buses from Mercedes-Benz before the low-floor Citaro G took over the lineup at the turn of the millennium.
