The upcoming 1.59 update for Euro Truck Simulator 2 will introduce a unique new location created in collaboration with Volvo Trucks — the Volvo Trucks Experience Center in Gothenburg, Sweden. This famous facility, located in Volvo’s hometown, combines brand exhibition areas with a professional test track designed to demonstrate the performance and technology of Volvo’s latest trucks.

In the game, the center has been recreated almost at a true 1:1 scale, allowing players to explore the facility and drive the full testing circuit. The track features a variety of driving conditions including fast curves, technical corners, elevation changes, and downhill sections, giving players a chance to test truck handling, braking, and stability beyond normal highway driving.

SCS Software paid special attention to detail when recreating the location, including parking areas and the surrounding environment to match the real-world site as closely as possible. Players will be able to discover the entrance near Gothenburg while exploring the map, although access requires ownership of the Scandinavia DLC.

The developers also visited the real Experience Center to collect references, sounds, and driving impressions, even testing trucks like the Volvo FH Electric and FH16 780 to ensure authenticity.

This addition highlights the strong partnership between SCS Software and Volvo Trucks and promises ETS2 players another realistic and immersive driving experience when update 1.59 releases.

And how can I keep silence – the biggest surprise on the picture above is the truck. FH16 780. It’s not announced yet but pictures on the internet doesn’t lie;)
