ACTHUNG! This mod needs, and is based on, the amazing Autron CVP mod by BeamNG Boy. The brand Autron and all the specifics of it as well as its lore belong to and are made by BeamNG Boy, not me. I just made a car for a brand
For the Japanese license plate in the Bosozoku config, use this mod.
Quick summary for those with little time to read
The Autron JSP was produced in 1992-1995, then got a facelift in 1996 to 1999. The car features 3 versions, a sedan, a coupe, and hatchback. It is loosely based on the Peugeot 405 and 406, while also trying to keep the Autron style. It was sold in Europe (LHD & RHD), the US, and even China Japan [WIP].
Models
Xenira, Xenicoupe and Xenihatch - normal models sold in Europe, both in LHD and RHD (RHD needs to be equipped through the vehicle config menu tho).
Selena - USDM models sold in North America, with main differences being the front fascia and the appearance of imperial gauges.
Inde - version sold in developing and poor countries, with a straight 3 engine. I feel bad for anyone who tried going uphill with this thing.
SportPower - models featuring DOHC versions of normal engines, sportier suspension and brakes. The primary are SportC, SportS, SportL and SportL Turbo, but there's also special SportX6 and SportX8 variants with V6 and V8 engines respectively, that were sold in 1997-1999.
Xenira-e - crappy electric variants with a 0-60 of 2-3 business days, low range and funny colors.
JELA [to be removed] - Chinese version [Stupid lore alert] sold illegitimately under the JELA branding in 1994, featuring 1.2 and 1.5 engines, and a custom gauge cluster, which looks pretty bad.
LXM - Luxury versions sold only as facelift models, with a 2.0 DOHC engine, a 2.7 V6 or a 3.8 V8.
Lore
In 1990 after the release of the Petitron, Autron decided to strike yet another deal with Ibishu, but this time with their great sedan, the Pessima, which has just released not long prior. The idea came when one of the engineers, Jacque, was eating a baguette sandwich, and had an idea which morphed into what you see here:
- The Xenira - a swift and light sedan,
- The Xenicoupe - a sporty and nimble coupe,
- The Xenihatch - a trusty family vehicle which looks absolutely terrible and nobody likes it.
The sales of the car were not bad, especially the cheaper specs, and it stood proudly as the small French company's sweet family car. Contrary to the Petitron, this one didn't last as long. In 1996, the car got a facelift, looking more sleek.

- @Mikah 01 - a lot of ideas for different configurations
- @AdamZ5 - good gauges 10/10
- @Kreunz - Prototype Gauges 2
- @(PL)PlayKlima - race and rally skin + config remaster
Also thanks to:

- Everyone else for motivation to continue the mod, constructive criticism and (mostly) kind words
Known Issues (ones in italics will be fixed in 1.0)
- Sometimes some textures are broken, pressing Ctrl+R should fix it
- I3 uses I4 models, but since the manifold is a big incomprehensible blob, it’s not that easy to see (unless you look at the length of the engine)
- We do not speak of the hatchback. It’s buggy, and it’d take me ages to fix it. I might try doing it though.
- JELA Gauges are temporarily removed, JELA will be removed bc it’s not unique.
- Missing SportPower lettering material. To fix, spawn the CVP before this car. Oopsies
- Facelift gauges are inaccurate
- Police config has no siren - I have no clue why did I not add it, it’s so easy to add.
Q&A with yours truly
Q: Will there be a van, LWB or UTE?
A: LWB is already planned for 1.0, UTE might come if I torture myself mentally about it enough, and I have a sketch for a Xsara Picasso-like MPV-ish version, but it will probably not see the light of day.
Q: Do you like Minecraft?
A: bruh
Q: How satisfying are the blinker sounds?
A: Yes.
Q: 2000s facelift when
A: I actually originally intended to not make a 2000s version, but I then had a rethink and in the end decided to make one. Will come out in 1.0 (yay)
Q: Can I suggest a feature?
A: Yes, but no spamming, and I don’t guarantee that I’ll add it, or even respond to the suggestion.
Q: grr mod bad
A: It’s your opinion. Well, in its current state, it’s a bit lackluster (except in configs), but for the full version it will be better, trust me.
Note: Please report bugs in the discussion thread, thanks
Have fun!

1. Mod is undergoing a rework and I’m fixing a lot of issues with the skill I have
2. Hatchback will be remade, already in progress
3. WDYM „coupe door bottom normal map” I’m not sure I’m catching on here
4. I’ll try to make the configs more balanced and less „every trim possible of every model year”
But uh thx for the genuine review I suppose, I’ll take the stuff you said into consideration :P

Thx for reviewing!
I can slightly increase the EV config acceleration, it’s so slow bc the motor was made for the Petitron, but the Petitron doesn’t have extra weight from the battery (BeamNG Boy forgor), so it’s kinda bad.
As for the second request, I’m not sure what I’ll be doing next. Maybe I’ll do something more modern. No promises though.
