Setra (the name comes from "selbsttragend") is a manufacturer of commercial buses and a subsidiary of DaimlerChrysler. Setra also produced pneumatic rifles between 1960 and 1980.
The first Setra bus, the Type S 8, was introduced in April 1951 at the German Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung. It featured a self-supporting body designed by Otto Kässbohrer, a concept now featured in most modern buses.
Since 1995, Setra is a member of the EvoBus GmbH.
