The Metro is a V6... The vehicle has the same basic idea as what the teasers show being done with the Covet so yeah it's a similar concept.
I'm getting the vibes that development on BeamNG has ceased, and we can all finally go home and leave this social experiment once and for all Also, why is everybody saying the new Covet is inspired by the 6R4? Isn't it equally inspired by the Peugeot T16?
And the covet look also like a R5 Turbo or the extreme version of it, R5 Maxi Turbo and these car have a I4 with turbo ... Plus there are a lot a engine use during the Group B, so devs can stay classic with I4, I5, V6 or can be crazy with V8, a rotor engine even if you think outsite real life a engine from the Pigeon
The Covet could go either way as far as i4 vs V6 is concerned. The Metro and the infamous Bring a Trailer mid engined gen 3 Civic both had a V6, while the Renault and Peugoet had i4s.
The covet has also only been shown as a sketch before but is now modeled and apparently in the game, so i dont think i ope this thread is a social experience
The wide rear fenders, just for symmetry of looks, must be the same on both sides, so mounting a Twin-Turbocharged V6 longitudinally, with the intercoolers hiding behind the fenders, just like in the Bolide 320 GTT/320 GTR versions, can justify this.
the melting pot of beamng society sometimes it pays off though --- Post updated --- its like 7pm in germany right now, so i dont know
I think it would be interesting to get a rotary engine at some point in the game. It would be cool to use in the pigeion or wigeion. Currently there is no other car that would suit a rotary engine.
the rear flare area of the covet rally car looks really similar to that mid engined civic, which was a v6. OT: is there a thread for the new C1 line map that Car_Killer was working on?
oh god we have fallen to the point of rotary engines dear lord please give us a teaser, even if it is simply one of the devs saying 'covet is coming' that will be enough
i feel like the 200bx is too big in a way. Rotary engines are small so keeping that in mind it could suit a car like the fb rx7 --- Post updated --- btw are there any rotary engine mods for anything?
