Update Speculation thread

I am late to the party and this is maybe a bit off-topic, but if it is coming from a european/asian car brand, it's not unreasonable to think it may have some sort of a mild-hybrid/hybrid system?
Okay, hear me out.
Almost all next generation family cars coming from Europe/Asia have at least a hybrid/mild-hybrid version, and in BeamNG every modern car released/revamped in the last two years have at least 1 electric version, and ESC and TSC systems have been worked on constantly in the past two years as well. I would love to see more advanced electronics (such as hybrids) because electronics are just as important as its mechanical parts on a modern car.
Except if its a American muscle car, then I would expect 800hp V8 rwd and weighs 2tons, which would be a lot of fun as well.

 

I'm a bit late to the party, but here are my theories on what it could be:

1. US premium car- some have suggested that it looks like a charger or VF SS, but I think it looks a bit too fancy for such a car. I'm wondering if it's something more akin to a Cadillac CT5. Alternatively, the underpinnings may be a lot more boring than we're expecting; it could be a FWD Lincoln Continental or Buick Lacrosse equivalent (though I somewhat doubt this, a RWD platform would more versatile for police and performance configs).
Either way, I could see this being badged as a burnside.

3. Sports/Executive Asian car- The styling is overall similar to a V37 skyline, X130 Mark X, Stinger, and Genesis G70. If this is the case, I could see it being a new Miramar.
I think I should also mention it's unlikely to be a Pessima, as the length between the front wheel and the bulkhead suggests it is RWD.

2. Italian/British GT car- this was the first thought that came to mind to me, something between a Quattroporte VI, Giulia, Jag XF, and Aston Rapide. The problem with this idea is that the styling almost seems too restrained; the front's probably not long enough for one of those.

3. The Gavril Omega is back with a Vengeance- You know what? forget everything I just said, it's definitely this.

 

This car takes a lot of designs cues out of many automotive designs from the modern period, therefore, it is very difficult to actually know what it is.

Personally, I hope for one of three things that could happen with this car:
1. A new country of a manufacturer - it would be pretty cool to get another country in the BeamNG lore, as there is plenty of unexplored territory yet to tackle.
2. A new brand in the existing countries - it would be pretty cool to see diversified German, French and Italian brands, besides just a couple of currently existing ones.
3. A new model/new generation of an existing model/brand - it would diversify the brand itself, but also the model years, whether it is a brand-new model or a new generation of an older car.

 

Removed as it is not relevant, and because I am an idiot.

 

But it's been said and repeated that this list shouldn't be used for speculation iirc

 

Tbh, I'm leaning more towards your opinion on the Moonhawk than that of the @XR8guy because, apart from the anemic engine outputs, there is also another clear indication: the Moonhawk isn't as fancy as a 70s Personal Luxury Car should, because it also has a basic, cheap version with less equipment. A 70s Personal Luxury Car would look overstuffed in comparison, both in terms of looks (chrome everywhere, vinyl-padded roof, wire hubcaps) and equipment!

 

Oops, my bad! Anyway, does anybody think that the name is hidden in the teaser tweet? The Pre-Runner did have its name in its spoiler tweet (although it was kind of obvious), as well as the Wendover. Something like "Civetta Paradise" would fit, wouldn't it?

 

very true, but the rear fender of it really reminds me of the Vivace's rear fender. then again, that could be me just looking too deep into it. either way this shit is beautiful

i would throw in my two cents on what i think it could ACTUALLY be/inspired by, but honestly im not very knowledgeable on the specifics of cars. although i do hope it's another original like the Vivace or the SBR.

 

Meanwhile me:

My laptop can't load Utah anyore, basically i can only go on the gridmap or modded maps. I hope it resist till november.

 

Make a clean reinstall

 

I will try but i think it's my laptop the problem, it's 6 years old and it's starting to deprecate. Anyways sorry for the OT.

 

No one thinks it's inspired by a Kia Stinger? It was my first guess.

 

What if then this new car gonna be just a new Gavril (Dodge Charger copy)? Maybe it's simple as thatMaybe it's simple as that

 

Spoiler: High quality screenshot

 

lmao xD

 

This car is looks like on the teaser! :O

 

So, wouldn't that mean that the car is in good way to be released on the next update ?

 

Interesting......last time when we got in-game photo of the wigeon, we got the update a few weeks(?) later....so if this car is near to finished, then why TDev said that we have to wait till mid-nov?

Or

Why would they put a teaser 2 months before the update?

 

Doubt gabester would allow that, as it is a Gavril from RoR
Also the grill doesn't match up

Basically yes

 

To be fair, that timeline (mid-nov) was stated right after the previous update, which was quite a while ago. It's possible that development went faster than anticipated.
