The IVECO Turbocity is a class of Italian buses built between 1989 and 1996 by IVECO. Replacing the Effeuno, they consisted of three variants with different internal arrangement: IVECO 480 for urban services, IVECO 580 for suburban services, and IVECO 680 for interurban services.

The buses were provided (depending from the sub-manufacturer chosen by the customer) with two different chassis length, 9,5 m, 10.5 m and 12 m. There was also an articulated version with a length of 18 m, as well as a trolleybus version.

The bus is in service with numerous public transport companies in Italy, Eastern Europe and Africa.

The urban 480 type was replaced by similar IVECO Turbocity-R class.
