    I always kind of liked the name J-series for a Gavril step van. Close enough to the H-series so that the vans are grouped together in the alphabet, but just far enough away to avoid confusion with the ETK I-series (the Gavril I-series would probably be a high-roof version of the H-series).

    Here's my ideal breakdown of the J-series:

    J15 - Based on the light-duty D-series frame, with five-lug hubs and light-duty suspension. A fine choice for light deliveries, like bakeries and ice cream trucks.

    J25 - Based on the Heavy-duty D-series frame, with six-lug hubs and medium duty suspension. Designed primarily for the postal service to provide delivery in residential areas.

    J35 - Based on the Heavy-duty extended D-series frame, with eight-lug hubs and single tires at the ends. The default J-series, most commonly found at work for contractors, shipping companies, certain postal applications, warehouses, food trucks, auto parts stores, and just about any other business that needs to move something moderately heavy that doesn't fit into an H-series, but doesn't require a full-on heavy truck. Also a common unarmored option for SWAT teams.

    J45 - The big one. Based on either the H45 frame or heavy-duty D-series crew cab frame (whichever is longer). Features eight-lug hubs, dual tires, and possibly rear fender flares to accommodate them. Made to carry extra equipment for city works departments, railways, fire departments, towing companies, large construction firms, highway service crews, mobile truck mechanics, small pit crews, and other users that need to carry a lot of equipment, but still need to be able to access it easily once on-site. You don't want to be climbing in and out of a T-series every time you need a wrench!

    The best part is that we can have multiple facelifts by changing only the front fascia and taillights! We could go all the way from the late sixties (represented by the Chevrolet at left) to the present day (represented by the Utilimaster at right) simply by adding in a couple of extra options, especially if Gavril used a tilt hood that included the front fascia. The hood bulge of the Morgan-Olsen (second from right) would be a particularly good styling choice for a facelift starting in 1995, as it would match the H-series.



    I mean, just look at these things. That's roughly forty years worth of vehicles right there, spread out across four companies!

    (Please keep in mind that this post has been translated from Brazilian Portuguese to English, so it may contain translation errors)

    A suggestion: the Hofstetter



    The Hofstetter was a sports car, manufactured by Hofstetter Indústria e Comércio de Veículos Ltda. Designed in 1973, it was shown to the public for the first time only in 1984, during the XIII Motor Show. The car was designed by the Brazilian Mário Richard Hofstetter and had inspiration in the Alfa Romeo Carabo. It was initially equipped with 1.6 engine and 4 gears shift from the Volkswagen Passat, followed by a 1.8 turbo engine and a 5-speed change of the Volkswagen Gol GT. The bodywork was made of fiberglass, on a chassis of its own, and one of the highlights of this model was the door-opening system in the "gullwing" style, as in the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing of 1956. Its manufacture started 1986, had only 18 units manufactured and today is a valuable rarity. In 2011 a unit was put up for sale for R$ 95.000,00 (approximately USD 30.025,59) in Santo André (SP) and sold in less than 2 months. The original engine had 140 hp, an excellent power at the time. Even today it is admired and worshiped by many people because of its futuristic and exotic design

    Most of your suggestions are one real car with a fictional name but you use the real engine sizes and setups. Isn't that basically the same thing?

    Not always. I change some details, and write that the design would be completely different.

    One of the last ones, the Chaparel X-Series, was completely different from the Lexus RX - the real RX never had an I6, nor was RWD.

    I agree that germanish name was stupid, I just didnt know how to name it Because Volkswagen is a real name. Tarpan is an horse ancestor and ingame Gavril is Ford.
    Yeah now I agree that this name is mega stupid XD

    Maybe because google translator sucks?

    The correct term would be 'Personenverkehr' or 'Personenbeförderung' by the way

    I call my VW expies "Nationauto".

    A bonus of that is that it also makes a simple logo - you just add a horizontal bar in the N.

    Entendre L-Series (1972-1979):

    It's a...

    ...1970s German compact executive 2-door sedan, mostly based on the Audi 80 B1, but with a BMW E21 rear fascia and Triumph Dolomite interior. Unibody, front longitudinal engine FWD, front MacPherson, rear single-wishbone suspension, all-around disc brakes.
    It would be launched together with with pre-1994-style (default in stock configs) and post-1994-style German plates, 1976-2000-style (default in Beater config) and post-2000-style Polish plates, post-1992-style Russian plates and 1973-1984-style and post-2002-style Swedish plates.

    Configs:
    - L70 - Equipped with a 70 HP 1.3 I4, coupled to a 4-speed manual and an open diff. Has basic brake pads, normal suspension and 13x5 steelies with 165/75 R13 tires and dog dish hubcaps.
    - L90 - As above, but with a 90 HP 1.6 engine, an optional 3-speed automatic and full hubcaps.
    - L115 - Equipped with a 115 HP 1.8 engine, a 5-speed manual/3-speed automatic, premium brake pads and 14x6 steelies with 185/70 R14 tires and full hubcaps.
    - Beater - Based on the L70, but with a lower engine power output, badly-tuned LPG installation, worn suspension, shoddily-cut springs, worn tires, rust showing up, a miscolored passenger's door, home-painted racing stripes, badly-matched front lip and rear ducktail spoiler, no bumpers, badly tinted windows and no hubcaps.
    - Folkrace - Based on the manual L115, but with rally suspension, 15x6 steelies with 215/60 R15 rally tires, a stripped interior and exterior, a rollcage, welded doors and trunklid and a folkrace paintjob.

    Why should it be added?

    Because it would be a nice piece of European car culture in the game.
