The Mercedes-Benz O404 was both a complete coach and a coach chassis manufactured by Mercedes-Benz between 1992 and 1999. As a complete coach it was available in three different lengths (O404-10, O404-13 and O404-15) and three different heights (RH, RHD and SHD). As a chassis it was available both with two and three axles.

Israeli bus operator Egged was the first corporation to use the O404 to carry passengers, as opposed to tours operation.
