    You are correct, especially looking at the front wiper setup. Only the 4th gen dodge and Chryslers had wipers like that (besides the older gm vans but they were boxier).

    The thing is with how similar all 2000s minivans are it very realistically could be from the US, Euro or Asia, so this doesnt really narrow it down to much. However I swear ive seen seats similar to the one in the car in Beam before, maybe that could help

    100% Agree. Maybe Bruckell? Lines up with Dodge's history of making muscle cars (moonhawk), to crappy econoboxes (legran + this) and then back to muscle cars (bastion)

    I found the exact spot where the image for the teaser was taken:
    upload_2023-6-13_18-32-46.png

    It's at the spawn point 'Settlement' in Johnson Valley looking towards the mountains. I have circled all of the features seen in the teaser so you know this is the right place. Also ignore the beam of light above the house, it's just a waypoint to where I thought the image was taken from (I was very far off, it turned out to be just where I spawned lol)

    edit: unnecessary attachment removed

    Oops sorry, you beat me to it! By the time I had loaded up Beam (which takes a while) you had also found it, and I didn't think to refresh the page. My bad!

    For the people that thinks minivans are boring: Are you sure about that?

    None of the minivans mods are based Dodge Caravan (except Gavril Traveller, but isn't that gen), is my favorite minivan but I also think that can be a japenese minivan because the fascia looks from Pessima 2nd gen and the lights looks from Sunburst, if it be an american minivan based on Dodge Caravan it will probably be a Bruckell minivan (Gavril is based mostly on Ford, Chevrolet and GMC, Bruckell is based mostly on Dodge and Oldsmobile) and if it be a japenese minivan based on Honda Odyssey it will be a Ibishu minivan or a Hirochi minivan (It's been almost 8 years since the last Hirochi comes to the game, witch is SBR4 in 2015)

    Amazing! From the front it looks like a Volkswagen Sharan or Seat Alhambra. I'm still convinced it's an American minivan. I hope to see it in stock condition soon!

    Minivans are boring, but that’s the point!
    I played many many hours with the Kashira back in 2019-2020

    Passengers side door and headrests scream early 2000s to me. The headlights probably aren't shaped anything like that, the real shape is obscured by the custom bumper. The short hood makes me think of a Plymouth voyager for some reason

    It doesn't look much else like a bubble era American car though, the creases on the hood and beltline are too sharp
    It looks a lot like the Mazda MPV to me

    Same sharp lines, same short hood, same fenders that go up the A pillar
    Maybe it's a Hirochi or a Gavril?

    I was about to post something similar, it looks like they just turned the FOV down for the pic:

    Love how there's been more speculation about the background of the image rather than the actual car shown itself

    So it's pretty much a Bruckell model in the late-90s to mid-00s, as I see it. After all, the familiar 3.3 and 3.8 transverse V6s, with upgraded Intake, Exhaust, ECU and - why not? - Transmission parts for being kept up with the times, are perfectly capable of moving such a car.

    I don't think that it be a Gavril if it be an american minivan, because Gavril is mostly based on Ford, Chevrolet and GMC.

    The seats are most likely aftermarket since this is the gambler custom config
    As someone who literally grew up in a Caravan for most of my childhood, I can be almost 99 percent certain that this will be an American vehicle based on the Caravan. The shape is almost exactly the same, as others have said Bruckell brand has some Dodge design elements to it already (Bastion) and the older bruckell V6 engines are the same displacement as the ones in the Caravan in real life, 3.3 and 3.8 liters. The base caravan came with a 2.4 liter I4 engine, the bruckell 2.5 I4 could fit this role.

    A Soliad version based on the Chrysler Town and Country might be possible as well, of course with higher end equipment and slightly different fascia.


    A European model is a lesser possibility, but still a possibility. I don’t know about this generation, but I know in real life the generation of Caravans that came after this one did have a rebadged model sold under the name Lancia Voyager in Europe.
