Mercedes-Benz Truck Racing (MBTR) is a simulation truck racing video game developed by the German company Synetic GmbH and published by THQ. The game was released for Microsoft Windows in 2000. The development was carried out in cooperation with Daimler AG, owner of Mercedes-Benz.
In 2003, Synetic developed another game focused on Mercedes-Benz cars - Mercedes-Benz World Racing. That game uses a significantly improved version of the game engine on which Mercedes-Benz Truck Racing is based.
Mercedes-Benz Truck Racing is a racing simulator that revolved around licensed racing trucks of the Mercedes-Benz brand. When developing the game, special attention was paid to the correct physical model of cars and the damage system; vehicles are modeled from real prototypes.
Passing various racing stages in the championship unlocks previously inaccessible trucks. The tracks are based on real racetracks.
The player vehicle is controlled using the keyboard and a racing wheel is supported.
