Euro Truck Simulator 2: 1.47

Version: 1.47 Release Date: April 2023 (Public Beta from March) Developer: SCS Software Platforms: PC (Windows, Linux, macOS) 1. Executive Summary Update 1.47 for Euro Truck Simulator 2 represents a bridge release – not a major content overhaul (like 1.44’s Austria rework or 1.46’s convoy mode improvements) but a quality-of-life and technical refinement patch. Its primary pillars are: (1) a redesigned in-vehicle navigation system, (2) an overhaul of the company management economy screen, (3) UI/UX improvements, and (4) new trailer customization options. While modest in headline features, 1.47 lays groundwork for future map expansions (West Balkans) and performance optimizations. 2. Key Features Analyzed 2.1. In-Vehicle Navigation Overhaul (GPS Rework) The Change: The dashboard GPS display now supports three independent zoom modes : Close (200m), Normal (400-800m), and Far (2km+). Drivers can cycle these via a new keybind (default: F3 modifier or directly mapped). More critically, the GPS now displays the route’s remaining distance and estimated time of arrival (ETA) directly on the dashboard screen, not just the Route Advisor.

Additionally, the is a precursor to the long-requested driver skill training queue – where you can assign drivers to specific training (ADR, High Value) instead of the current passive skill growth. 8. Verdict & Recommendation For existing players: Update is mandatory (Steam auto-updates) and non-disruptive. The GPS ETA alone is worth the download. For new players: No reason to avoid – it’s stable and improves the early-game money management. For mod-heavy players: Wait 2 weeks after release for economy mod updates. euro truck simulator 2 1.47
