Update Speculation thread

The ones in the Spoilers teaser are the 230S variants. The double left-hand-side exhaust tip, the narrow body and the 18in Cherrier Sport wheels give them away. All these 3 features are part of the Vivace 230S variant, which also means that the Ardente will still, most likely, have a Torsion Beam rear suspension, just like the Vivace 230S.

The blue one in TDev's teaser is a widebody variant. Apart from the different design of the rear bumper, we can also see the flares sticking out from the rest of the body to cover the widebody front and rear suspensions (the latter being independent, because there's no narrowbody independent rear suspension in the FCV Platform, at least for now). It's also got the 19in Cherrier Vivace S wheels in their standard "Two-Tone" variant (the "Colorable" one is reserved for the Arsenic variants) and a color-matching roof (the Arsenics don't have that either). Plus, in the Friday's teaser, I also noticed it sporting the normal 245/35R19 Sport tires (branded "AD82T", just like most of the rest of the BeamNG tires - check the rear right shot very closely). So it's either an Ardente S 270 or an Ardente S 350Q.

The brown one in TDev's teaser is an Arsenic variant. Apart from the widebody, it's also got the black/carbon fiber roof (with chrome arches on each side, which is a gorgeous touch) and the Selecta SportPlus 2R tires plus these special 6-spoke wheels and the diamond pattern stitching on the seats (the Arsenics have that, although the black Alcantara with Arsenic Green diamond stitching should still be available, like in the Vivace Arsenic variants)!

 

Not necessarily. With the placement of it though, it’s most likely a button to move the seat. I’ll bet you that since we’re getting interactable sunvisors, this button will be interactable as well.

 

Why would you need to interact with it? Genuinely useless to move the seat.

 

Why do we need to interact with the hazard light button in the Aurata, or hell even open the doors on some cars? It just adds more immersion, while it's not particularly useful, it's cool to see implimented. Unlike a heated seat feature, at least it has an animated element to it as well.

 

Yeah but all those other parts are useful , the first person camera can be adjusted on its own.

 

Is 0.39 going to bring Smooth lighting to the remaining vehicles that don't have it? Like the H-series, Bolide, Hopper, etc

 

Yeah, you can see it in the trailer. Better get a simplified traffic hopper

 

It's just sorta interesting. I don't think there's much more of a point to it other than it being a neat little feature.

I'd imagine so, we've seen that at least the 96 pessima gets it in 0.39 via one of the teasers.

 

So as we don't have to fiddle with it in the settings? That would sure add to the immersion!

 

Just kinda dumb. Would much rather things like a working radio

 

The Ardente might be my fav vehicle

 

You mean this? It's definitely for moving the driver's seat for and aft, for accessing the rear seats. Being mounted there wouldn't make any sense for it to control, say, the seat heater.

With that being said, I'd love to see the seats being moved with such controls. I'd love to see buttons like this be actually functional!

 

yes, that's the button I'm talking about

 

Seeing this is based on the vivace, I wonder if this is really the Adavaced car we meant to get in 2026, Not that am complain, This thing is stunning Cherrier Ardente for ever,

But i think it was ( Cherrier Ardente ) was going to be early 2026, and this new high end Adavanced car in middle or late 2026

may be wrong, and either way, I really love the

Cherrier Ardente

PS, This makes the lovely ETK K-series feel bland in style ( i do love it )
I think this will be the best new car in game,

 

I also wonder about sequential turn signals, I noticed earlier that one of the signals on the rear looks like it could be sequential but I could be wrong. It's just set up in a way where it could be.

 

I think this is it, probably has a bunch of new features that makes it special.

 

imo it shouldn't be present on the French cars if they're intending to have them somewhat accurate to real life, but I won't complain either way.

 

I hope we can choose the height of our character in the future.

 

would actually be nice if we could fit inside the bus

 

I have a theory that may seem a bit far fetched.

I have a sneaking suspicion that we may be getting some sort of character or player model maybe in this update or the near future??
This screenshot posted a while back in June from Tdev where theres some sort of character thing sitting inside the car but not only that, the walking animations also teased by Tdev too also kind of leads me to believe this as well.
However, this could all be completely wrong and a complete reach from me but I wanna know if anyone else is thinking the same.
Or maybe that character thing is just a funny developer thing he used
