Publisher astragon Entertainment and developer Simteract have released a new trailer focusing on the vehicle lineup available in Bus Simulator 27, showcasing the licensed buses that players will be able to operate when the simulation title launches on 8 September 2026.

Bus Simulator 27 fleet includes city and coach buses

According to astragon Entertainment, Bus Simulator 27 introduces the largest vehicle roster ever featured in the series. For the first time, the game combines traditional city buses with coach buses, expanding the operational scenarios available to players.

The coach segment was previously presented in a dedicated Coach Bus Journey trailer, while the newly released video focuses on the urban fleet. The game includes multiple propulsion technologies, ranging from conventional diesel models to battery-electric, compressed natural gas (CNG) and hydrogen-powered buses.

Players will be able to select different vehicle configurations depending on route characteristics. Compact buses are intended for narrower streets within the fictional cities of Mequina and Alcaztelar, while articulated and double-decker buses are available for higher-capacity urban services. Astragon Entertainment states that the vehicle selection is designed to support the development of the public transport network across the game’s setting.
