It a arcade racing game set in fictional place. In russian version - russian named cities (incl. some real city names).
Sorry for the Kind-of-Necro but i do like this game and i thought maybe someone else is looking for background informations too so here ya go.

The Russian Wikipedia site from the game is filled with alot of Informations, so if you got your trusty Google at your hand you can find some informations there :P (https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Дальнобойщики_2_(игра))

To answer your question; apparently the "Novosibirsk region" was taken as basis.
You wrong. This is originally american game, later EU release and EVERY russian editions is localized versions of first or second EU editions. Very first russian versions - bundled with US\EU - use differ city names.

So it definitely not set in Russia except exactly SOME of the russian versions (and only some of the russian versions).

Fictional Eurocentric place. It follows their standards of road signage.

Even in version with more-like- american signs (game original release), it still fictional not based on any real region.
