Version 1.55 Compatibility: This mod is optimized for ETS2 game version 1.55, ensuring that it functions smoothly amid various game updates that can often disable older mods. Version 1.55 introduced significant changes like asynchronous loading, redesigned UI, and the new Driving Academy.

Engines & Transmissions: A wide selection of engines with different power outputs along with realistic gearbox options.
External Accessories: Unique bumpers, side skirts, spoilers, light bars, and various paintable elements. Many Brazilian mods feature “corujinhas” (small decorative owls), specialized antennas, and other local stylistic touches.
Interior Customization: Upgraded dashboards, custom seating, additional ambient lighting, and numerous personalizable features.

Ownable: You can purchase this customized Iveco Hi-Way from a mod truck dealer in the game, allowing for full personalization to suit your fleet.
Potential for Tandem/Trailer Integration: Some truck mods seamlessly integrate with specific trailers or offer tandem chassis options, but compatibility with certain mod trailers (like certain bitrems) can have issues with invisible cargo.

Important Considerations
Mod Compatibility: Although this mod is tailored for 1.55, running multiple mods together can lead to conflicts or crashes. If you encounter issues, consider disabling other mods to see if the problem remains.
