Update Speculation thread

The new car likely is much more modern. V12 fell out of favour in mainstream cars because the cost and complexity cant be justified in comparsion to performance orientend smaller engines.

Hybrid certainly would be cool but as the devs have said, they are not looking into it anytime soon as the effort required is hard to justify in comparsion to the benefits. Seing that pure electric drivetrains are not finished either, a hybrid would only be half finished at the moment.

Finally, with Arcanox great Hybrid mods, it is a going to be challenging to create an even more detailed hybrid system by the devs themselves so one can understand their hesitation.

Finally, the grand time of hybrid in cars is coming to an end. With EV getting better every year, it is increasingly hard to justify carrying all that maintainance heavy ICE stuff arround in addition.

 

the fact that that engine was just used in a bunch of aston supercars makes that engine a bit lamer

 

I agree. And lame should also be the adjective to describe the VW W12, which consists of two VR6s joined together and the W16, consisting of two Audi V8s (or two VW W8s, I don't know).

 

So yeah we need more unique types of engines (V3, VR6, W8, W12, V10, V12, W16, V17)

 

V24.5, W15, Z75 etc.

 

wtf where you see that engines in car
--- Post updated ---
And the last I meant V16

 

If it will has the engine more than 8 cylinders, it could be a cool swap for someone who is insane.

 

I like insane swaps but they break car

 

My point is that we don't see V3s and V17s either. I mean, where could such engines be used?
Sorry for being ironic, I just wanted to drive this point home!

edit: Just checked more closely that you meant "V16" instead of "V17"! Strike my V17 point out!

 

V3 is the engine made by Honda. So yeah it exists

 

It's safe to say that I've never heard of it before.
But I'll search it up!

 

Yes it's true. But I found out in Bora V6 page

 

Yep! It's essentially a VR6 with half the cylinders!

 

I love it so much (mostly with 4Motion option) so I built it

 

How DARE you forget the VR5

 

Bruh don't be so angry I just forgot VW had same engine but with 5 cylinders

 

Bruh he's obviously not really angry and he's joking, you really need to detect jokes better.

 

ikr

 

According to this wikipedia article, the Honda V3 engine was usually used in motorcycle racing.

But still would be cool this engine be here
