    Vivace Extra Parts / Trim Levels + PureMerde Badges And Engines

    Have you ever wished your Vivace was a lot worse and shitty? With this brand new aussie made mod, you can!

    In 2018, Cherrier developed a brand new engine for their upcoming 2020 FCV platform. Called the PureMerde, this 1.2L Inline 3-Cylinder offers "performance" while having excellent fuel economy. Despite it being a technological marvel, the PureMerde engine suffered from catastrophic issues, most having something to do with its submerged timing belt. It was received very poorly by customers, as higher-end models were ludicrously expensive, while the lower-spec ones were built "The French Way" and suffered from a severe lack of performance.

    PureMerde 82 MAN-5 (Active)

    PureMerde 138 MAN-6 (Allure)

    FUN FACT!
    The default configs have licence plates that match their IRL equivalents!
    (Thus why I recommend this mod: https://www.beamng.com/resources/french-plates-avec-départements.34019/)

    Also features modified sound for the 138 and 82 variants respectively.

    you should put a analogue gauge instead of the puremerde badge it would add more realism

      Currently on the works m8! (Not much progress as the BeamNG Devs added weird names like "Pain du chocolat" and "Tradition bien cuite s'il vous plait" in the gauge files
