MARCOPOLO G6 1800 8X2 DD-SCANIA v1.0 ETS2
The MARCOPOLO-G6 1800 DD 8×2 is a high-end double-decker bus, a result of the collaboration between Brazilian bus body manufacturer Marcopolo and Swedish chassis maker Scania. This specific model combines a Marcopolo Paradiso G6 1800 DD body with a Scania 8×2 chassis.
Here is a breakdown of what that means:
Marcopolo Paradiso G6 1800 DD
The Marcopolo Paradiso is one of the company’s most popular coach lines, known for its use in long-distance travel and tourism. The “G6” signifies the sixth generation of this model. The “1800 DD” indicates its position in the product line and that it is a Double-Decker bus (“DD”). These buses are designed for maximum passenger capacity, comfort, and luxury, often featuring amenities like reclinable seats (leito, semi-leito), air conditioning, restrooms, and entertainment systems.
Scania 8×2 Chassis
The “8×2” refers to the chassis configuration. This is a crucial element that determines the bus’s performance and load capacity.
8 refers to the total number of wheels.
2 refers to the number of driven wheels (or drive axles).
In an 8×2 configuration, the bus has four axles, but only one of them is powered by the engine. The primary reason for this setup is to support the heavy weight of the double-decker body and its full passenger load. The extra axles help distribute the weight, improving stability and handling. The most common Scania chassis used for this model is the K-series, which is specifically designed for high-floor buses and coaches. These chassis are known for their powerful engines, often a Scania DC13 with six cylinders, and the Scania Opticruise automated manual transmission.
