Some of my favorite trucks in ETS2 are the RJL Scanias, specially the R and T 4 and 5-Series, and I have tried many sound mods for them in the past, but none of them felt familiar.
I live in a port city in Brazil and these trucks can be seen at practically every minute, but they just sound so different from ingame, so I wonder what makes the brazilian Scanias different from the european ones. Here's some examples of how they usually sound where I live:

Meanwhile sound mods (and vanilla) usually sound like either a V8 hotrod with crackling or an awfully quiet droning. Why? I'm not criticizing or anything, I just had this question in my mind for a long time and figured it would be stupid to ask here but I just said f***k it after hearing one park at the market in the corner of my street. Have in mind that I don't know much about engines and the specifics of the trucks, just that I play them ingame and see them irl.

Re: Question - Brazilian Scanias and mods.
Actually there are also European Scanias that sound like that, they have a so calles open pipe, meaning that the noise cancellers are removed(which is illegal in the EU) making them sounding the same. This sound can be heard here for example https://youtu.be/Vat_oSF7YQ4
So there are probably to reasons legal reasons, defined by law and second technical reasons due to different emission standards(also varying between the different generations)
For the sound mods, I assume, it is related to the mixing of all the different sounds but also finding useable sound sources

Re: Question - Brazilian Scanias and mods.
Because all the examples you posted are 6-cylinder Scanias, not V8 like most of the sound mods you'll find for the game are. Europe obviously does have 6-cylinders aswell, they're just usually not as hopped up/tuned as is more common in Brazil.
