    That’s the right train of thought. I will make a magic wagon one day, as minivans are something else the game lacks. But that day will probably be in 2021

    I was thinking of maybe calling it the "ETK Eon". How does that sound?

    Sounds good! Definitely appropriate. I’ve got another name idea, but I almost don’t want to tell anyone incase they use it

    I used the name because I didn't want to use planet names already used before by car brands (either by their own name, edition name, or in the model's name), and ones that aren't cringey as well. (In other words, planets like Uranus)

    Interesting. Il save these suggestions for when i create a thread. I specifically thought of the name Eon because the car's technology would be ahead of it's time. Jupiter works as well, it implies distance, endurance and ability.

    Introducing the all new 1986 Bruckell Space Wagon.
    --- Post updated ---
    I like that for the hyper car too though. Like the Gumpert Apollo. Not sure if a company like ETK would name their car like that though, but I like it regardless :)

    Yeah, true about ETK since every car (official or mod, WIP or finished) always is a Series vehicle, just like BMW.

    Yeah but if we’re talking electric supercar, then follow BMW’s naming sceme, as they seem to have done the same thing as ETK. In which case, it should be along the lines of “BMW i8”. I’m just saying real life counter parts of ETK always give their cars boring names, not names like “Jupiter”

    True, i will keep this in mind. Perhaps ETK E-Series would be better.

    Yeah, although BMW have given their electric and hybrid vehicles marginally different names (i3 + i8 at least). So keep that in mind too:) (I still think ETK Eon is a great name)

    Yeah, love it. Very BMW. The ad would probably be a lot of shots of some guy holding the steering wheel and a dark track with a car you can’t really see driving on it

    Wow, thanks! :D I'm not sure if its one of the best, i think mods like the B25 and Me262 would probably take those spots. I'm working on some big improvements for this mod at the moment, so stay tuned. I'm glad you like it!
