This location-related Truck Simulator Wiki article includes a map image that is outdated and obsolete due to recent in-game updates with changes to the surrounding area of the map.
By any chance, you can upload an updated version of the map image, edit and update it in this article (unless it will be used temporarily), or you can notify the wiki for the map to be updated.
Reason: Obsolete due to update 1.48.5: The map needs to be updated with Trieste that was added in the 1.48.5 update, alongside the update of Ancona and Bari's port in the same update.
The country is bordered by France to the northwest, Austria and Switzerland to the north and Slovenia to the northeast. In real life, it also shares borders with the enclaved microstates of Vatican City and San Marino. It is located to the south of the map, and consists of 4 different cities, all of which are in northern Italy, featured in the initial Euro Truck Simulator 2. Italy was expanded with 22 new cities in the Italia DLC, released on 5 December 2017, fills up most of the country. The base game part of Italy was reworked in the update 1.30.

Cities
In Euro Truck Simulator 2, Roma is omitted in the base game, but the cities of Torino and Verona were introduced along with the returning of Milano. Further east, Venezia was added in update 1.11. The Italia DLC brings back the capital city of Roma along with 21 others to Italy (18 cities in the initial release, 3 cities in Sardegna were added in the update 1.35). Trieste was added in update 1.48.5.
There are thirteen ferry routes which operate services to / from Italy. All ferry services originating from Italy are operated by Eolo Lines, with the exception of services from Trieste, which are operated by Polaris Lines.
Italy, along with France and Poland, is one of very few countries in which almost all of the motorways are paid for by toll. Norway would count, but the tolls are only paid at a fixed price, not at a distance-dependent price.
During development of Euro Truck Simulator 2, Italy was supposed to have Bologna, Ancona, Genova and Roma, but due to time constraints they were cut, until the announcement for its expansion.
