Fun & unique facts about... Cherrier FCV

Hello and welcome, to what is hopefully a fun series of threads about the BeamNG vehicles & their unique traits which makes them stand out from other in-game cars!
Depending on the community reception, there will be more threads like this, especially for upcoming vehicles. After a small hiatus from my side, we're now on episode 5, so I think it's going well

Here is some fun facts about the Vivace & Tograc:

• They are the first car platform in game to feature an Inline-5 engine
• The Tograc is the only crossover in game as of writing this, despite the Overview tab refering to it as a "Hatchback"
• 
  
• 
  
• Having a model year of 2020, the Vivace is the most modern hatchback
• Only vehicle to have not only flat-bottom steering wheel but also flat-top, making it a rounded rectangle
• They feature a plethora of propulsion options: Inline-3, Inline-4 of two different sizes & fuel types, as well as an Inline-5 & electric motors, in 1 & 2 motor configuration
• 
  
• None of the ICE have the ability to be N/A, just forced induction in the form of a singular turbocharger
• First to feature an electric radiator option
• 
  
• Both, Vivace & Tograc possess the ability to exchange some body panels between each other, e.g. the bumpers
• 
  
• First to have lightweight glass as an option
• Only vehicle to have a selectable tacho & speedo scale
• Has the ability to change the interiour designs, not just colours, which lets you have "mood lighting" on the interiour
• They both have an "Amateur Rally Livery", which hasn't been seen before on other cars
• Vivace is the first car to introduce a Rallycross config

Feel free to add some fun facts of your own ​

 

"Fun" Fact:
Most configs have Performance Class 0, which is likely a "bug", but it hasn't been fixed in... over a year.

 

Its the first car to have “b.agguet” on the side lol

 

Fun fact: it was the first vanilla vehicle to not have a moving gear selector (always love when another one of these come out )

 

maybe they all hate CUVs?

 

I honestly think the tograc in general is ugly, it looks like the new ugly bmws that look like they are shouting and choking

 

I hope they add an old hydropneumatic french car like this

The tograc is definitely not the best example of french cars quirkyness

 

*Cries in repair bill*
I used to work at a place that specialized in the repair of the few French cars that were sold here. Most of the cars that I had to "fix" were just regular maintenance on regular cars, like timing belts on Nissans, oil changes on Audis, etc. However, there were a few French cars that I had to fix. I quit after only a year XD. Thanks to Agent_Y, I can now simulate a French car driving down the road without worrying about fixing it.
OT: The Tograc was the first car to have digital gauges. It also the first vehicle not on the original list that had its name released before the actual car was.

 

That would be epic for people with force feedback wheels

 

The ETK gauges, to be fair, are not truly digital. They have a center screen in the cluster, but the gauges themselves are still analog. eSBR, you got me there. It was a full year before that came out, so yeah.

 

only car where, on launch, had fog lamp telltale lights on the gauges, even though it doesnt have fog lamps

which, had been fixed in a later hotfix.


and is back again, after the new UI update.

 

One Rally skin has the driver name m.mouton, a reference to legendary rally driver Michelle mouton

 

B. Augette, The racing god.

 

Fun fact : cherrier is a french word : it's a type of plant that can live for years

 

Fun Fact: about this congfigure, the back of this configure says ...insérer le slogan français ici which actually means "insert French slogan here i just found this out like just now.

 

And the 2cv ? The 404 and 504 ? And the 4L ? And the 205 ?

 

Lol
