You’re looking for a very specific and iconic bus mod for Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2)!
The “Nielson Diplomata 350 4×2 6×2 sc ETS2” refers to a mod that brings the classic Brazilian bus model into the game, with options for different chassis configurations, and “sc” likely indicates it’s a Scania-powered version (as Scania was a common chassis for these buses).
Here’s a breakdown:
Nielson Diplomata 350: This is a legendary bus model from the Brazilian coachbuilder Carrocerias Nielson (later Busscar). The Diplomata 350 was known for its distinctive design, comfort, and reliability, becoming a staple on Brazilian intercity routes. It evokes a strong sense of nostalgia for many in Brazil.
4×2 and 6×2: These refer to the chassis configurations:
4×2: A bus with two axles, where only the rear axle is driven. This is the standard configuration for many buses.
6×2: A bus with three axles, where one of the rear axles is a liftable or fixed support axle (often referred to as a “trucado” or “trucado” in Brazil). This configuration allows for greater passenger and luggage capacity and better weight distribution.
“sc” (Scania): This typically indicates that the bus mod is modeled on a Nielson Diplomata 350 built on a Scania chassis. Scania (like Mercedes-Benz and Volvo) supplied many chassis for bus bodybuilders in Brazil, and the engine and transmission characteristics would be based on Scania components.
ETS2 (Euro Truck Simulator 2): The game for which this mod is designed. Unlike truck mods, bus mods often allow players to drive routes with passengers, making them popular with a different segment of the ETS2 community.
What to expect from a Nielson Diplomata 350 ETS2 Mod:
Classic Brazilian Bus Experience: The mod aims to recreate the unique look, feel, and sound of this iconic Brazilian bus.
Detailed Modeling: High-quality exterior and interior modeling, including the classic Nielson design elements.
Multiple Chassis Options: The ability to choose between 4×2 and 6×2 (or even 6×4 if available) chassis.
