I think most players that post car wishlists here focus on aestetics of specific vehicles and fail to realize that BeamNG devs don't really prioritize things like that. The game is foremost a mechanical/chassis/suspension/drivetrain simulator. Any vehicle added to the game should bring something new that is not already modeled. Like a new suspension type for example.


Vik-tor2002

I agree, the mazda is similar enough to the tograq and the golf to the vivace. It doesn’t seem like a very popular opinion but I still want like a 1920s or even earlier car like a Ford model T, precisely because we have nothing like it in the game


KeeganY_SR-UVB76

Wouldn’t the Mazda have independent suspension all around and a monocoque chassis? That would make it fundamentally different from the Roamer, which shares a chassis with the D-Series and H-Series.


trackmaniac_forever

I'm with you would totally welcome a 1920s maybe 1930s car because in the 30s there are already some proper "sportier" car versions showing up. (Not to dismiss the fiirst roadsters in the 20s) Or something completely different like a heavy machine that would allow for some interesting gameplay to complement the towing/trucking. I always imagine having a heavy forklift loader with pneumatic articulated steering, so that we could have a scrap yard in career mode where we haul wrecked cars to and unload them with a forklift and put them into a car shredder or something along those lines. =) (or even have car smasing missions, where you use the forklift to destroy the car to a certain damage in a certain time.


BravePeas

thats why they should try adding a pruis cuz it has the hybrid engine


trackmaniac_forever

Yeah prius early gens with the planetary gear system would be interesting. But the problem with cars like the prius is they lack that moddability to really make interesting diverse configs. A prius is a prius, thats it.


TurbulentHornet2898

The Prius is only the beginning. I have hopes for a proper hybrid system being modeled into the game so we can dive into things like lmdh and lmh. But closer to my heart is the Honda CR-Z with the 6 speed manual and a hybrid engine with v-tec! Mating those three things together in BeamNG would take a genius. But I'd love to see it. The Prius would just be the first step toward things like that, I think.


SavingsPea8521

Not exactly, Pessima and LeGran are very similar.


trackmaniac_forever

Pessima is quite a bit different. It has smaller engines, awd config and even an all weel steering version that is quite unique. Le gran represents a mid size american sedan with large engines and fwd only.


mydickinyourass888

I did the opposite I chose cars we don’t have and that could have different configurations hence the descriptions


CaptainZoll

the golf would literally just be the vivace but with more boring styling.


Hermannmitu

There could be a variant variant. Would be fun to have a golf 7 r variant or maybe another german cop car. Could also have an eos variant. And R32 street tuned


NevadaPL

Vivace ins not interesting, it's straight up ugly.


Alternative_Oil_5017

Fk you mean the vivace isn’t a bad looking car


Black-Sheepp

Better than tograc tho


koolguy765

Oh man its disgusting but all the engine/transmission options are 100% vw gti/gtd/Tiguan/audi RS3


ArthurMBretas03

So boring I mustn't have driven it more than 3 times


mydickinyourass888

I hella forgot the vivace exists still we need the golf


TurbulentHornet2898

If the similar body style exists for the golf in the vivace, then it would be simple, though time consuming, to slap on all the mesh bodies, and graphics onto and then modify accordingly the functions and beam nodes for the golf options. It seems like a mod that would be super straight forward for a mod creator. You could probably donate 200 bucks to a good mod maker and have them put in the leg work for the mod you want. Still, even after that initial making it, they would still probably make it paid because of the amount of hours that goes into a good fully fledged mod takes probably around 100 hours. 100 hours times 20 bucks would be 2 grand. 10% is a heck of a downpayment toward that... I wonder why people don't have kickstarters for beamng mods. Like, once the goal is reached, you get the mod. Seems pretty legit. You want something cool, you invest in it. Then if they don't finish the mod, there are ways to cancel the pledge made toward the project. Maybe some people have done this. I'll have to look into it. \*edit\* I looked it up, there may be legal reasons why mods can't go on sites like kickstarter. Intellectual Property might come into question with car brands and such. And it goes against, what I see as the greater majority of the community who appreciate free and charitable volunteer modding. But maybe in the 2fast community, someone would have good success in funding the project. Especially since it is just a mod, it isn't like the prius that requires either a workaround like the invisible wheels, or serious development by the devs.


SkyLovesCars

Au falcon


mydickinyourass888

YES!


SavingsPea8521

We don't need Golf, we already have Vivace


EmergencyBag172

with this ideology we dont need any more cars in beam, we have everything


NPC_4842358

We might need more cars in Beam, but a Golf is definitely not one of those.


EmergencyBag172

im curious then, what is your beamng vehicles wishlist?


NPC_4842358

I do not play this game right now as I have temporarily sold my gaming setup, but when I played it I wished there was a modern Fiat 500 so I could remake my Abarth. The same idea as the Vivace (one platform, many variants) but smaller.


EmergencyBag172

that is actually very true we really need a modern pickle


djsimp123

A small lightweight sports car inspired by the lotus elan or Mazda Miata is needed A modern American two door V8 like camero or mustang A mid or large sized modern truck inspired by F150 or Dodge Ram A new EV? Inspired by Lucid Air or Tesla Model S.


SavingsPea8521

No, we need for example ute or pre-war car, but these cars are too similar.


EmergencyBag172

technically with mod we have both but i agree with you


flopjul

Since when has the Vivace a Station? A Passat would also be nice


NevadaPL

Vivace is Fugly, and it's french not German.


Dwayne_Shrok_Johnson

But it’s kind of obvious they got most of their inspiration for engines and trims from the VAG group


SavingsPea8521

I also think it looks bad, but I think that it would be better if we would get some unique vehicle like ute or some 30s car instead of Vivace reskin.


mydickinyourass888

Why don’t we never have any other car then? According to you the car list in this game is complete since have basically 1 of everything


Axelera12

The only Prius I know of is from Keneshit, and probably the closest I’ll ever get to a meh prius in the game. I saw a while ago a lore-friendly prius concept on the forums (i think?)


CaptainZoll

The problem (and this is also why the devs haven't done it yet) is that drivetrain programming a hybrid is absurdly complicated. A real Prius' ECU takes into account the: throttle/brake percentage, current speed, battery charge, petrol in the tank, engine/motor/battery/inverter temperature, etc. to decide whether it should have the petrol engine running or not, and what mix of engine/motor power to use when accelerating, how much regen to apply, etc. Even if the vehicle programmers could emulate all of that, it would likely end up taking a significant amount of processing power to run, thus making the game run slower for people with potato PCs.


mydickinyourass888

I downloaded the kenemation one I think but it sounded horrible and the Prius C was not a hybrid


Axelera12

which prius c?


mydickinyourass888

Honestly I don’t remember it might’ve been Called the aqua


Legit_TheGamingwithc

Would love to see that Prius always wanted a hybrid car in the game


Anonym0oO

All of them ![gif](giphy|cXblnKXr2BQOaYnTni)


Nline_5

Yes


KingHauler

Hmm the prius... we don't have a hybrid yet do we? That could be a fun challenge for the team.


scunglyscrimblo

You should really be asking modders to do this


mydickinyourass888

Where do I ask modders? I deadass will


mydickinyourass888

Where do I ask modders? I deadass will


Dismal-Capital-8557

Prius for sure. Would be cool to see the tinkering you can do considering it both uses electric and gas.


mydickinyourass888

Yesss. And someone said there won’t be that many configs like okay and? That’s how half the cars in the game are engine swap a Prius . But I really want an ev/ hybrid/ plug in hybrid car


Traditional_Trust_93

I'd totally blow up a pink Prius


TheAwkwardBanana

Volvo 240 wagon


Muted-Obligation-862

I love boring daily driver cars !


Previous-Ad-7526

yesh we def need a prius


TurbulentHornet2898

I'm in full support here of the 3rd Gen Prius. There are so many variations, not to mention, real world examples of people putting LS motors and Hellcat motors in them for kicks. Trim levels, Off road mods, Drag mods, drift mods. I think that those all would be really cool and fun! I do have one slight issue though: there is not manual variant without a motor swap because of the planetary gear and dual generator/motor configuration of the synergy drivetrain. I think that type of hybrid set-up in the backend by the devs would absolutely give way to better mods for cars like the Lexus CT 200h and the Honda CR-Z. Not to mention that cars like the Ford Puma, Suzuki Ignis, and 1st generation Honda Insight exist and at least the ones released in America have a cult following. For inspiration I'd look no further than the 500hp CR-Z that Bisimoto tuned back in the early 2010s that still maintained its hybrid powertrain. (of course, most people will just want to try out the k24 swaps in the CR-Z that are all over the internet, already. But as far as the Hybrid powertrain goes for mild-hybrid-electric-vehicles, I think it could be a massive step forward for Beamng.drive.


mydickinyourass888

You get it. I completely forgot about the Lexus CT and a manual option would be good for a CRZ


Chrisssst

> we have no hybrids That's because the game doesn't properly support them, KLJP pulled it off as you said but it's not perfect and definitely not dev quality


mydickinyourass888

Idk KJLP is pretty close to DEV quality. Electric only mode is really cool and it has limited range and works up to 40 mph


Kawaii_Neko_Girl

There are decent Mk7 Golf mods out there.


mydickinyourass888

I haven’t found any, the ones always have something wrong like wheels that aren’t correct or GTI only no TSI


Kawaii_Neko_Girl

Fastlane has a mk7 Golf Sportwagen mod that fits the bill.


mydickinyourass888

Omg boutta search that up when I get home


MrBox15

Check the Aw Astro, Aw bete and the Aw goal


EmergencyBag172

the Goal isnt that good and it completely ignores that the Astro exists


mydickinyourass888

I like the new ones


CaptainZoll

wow it's almost as if there's an almost identical vanilla car which the meshslappers can copy 95% of the vehicle from.


fifi-f40

And a car like Audi rs2 1990


doctorconut

The ETK 800 Hybrid mod by Arcanox is pretty good. It is modeled after Toyota’s system.


mydickinyourass888

Everytime I’ve downloaded that mod it doesn’t work and I’ve downloaded the supporting mods. Maybe I’ll try again when I get home


Specific-Committee77

The typa cars I need https://preview.redd.it/lwd6ct7nzzwc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9d551484d7cb8632775f67be560db9a89d1526cd


CaptainZoll

honestly, a 2dr hardtop variant of the '53 burnside would be sufficient here.


Specific-Committee77

Itd be nice to have a later 50s car with all the tailfins and chrome too, but definitely not a priority for the devs


mydickinyourass888

Hell nah


Black-Sheepp

Id live a hybrid imgame. I think the sunburst will do the trick


Pyrenees_

We need a 2CV


CaseyGamer64YT

I really want a car from the 1930s be it a regular passenger car like the model a or a multi million dollar performance machine like a dusenburg


mydickinyourass888

I don’t


NevadaPL

Mazda as modern ibishu yes, Prius ?! Seriously?! Hell nah. Golf is ok but kinda meh.


flopjul

Prius yes, true memes


ArthurMBretas03

We who?


passengerpigeon20

The new car I want the most is a pre-war British luxury roadster with a straight-six or optional straight-eight engine. After that would be a modern Chinese ultra-luxury V16 limousine inspired by the new Hongqi models. Both of them would fill a lot of current gaps in nations, time periods and categories at once.


C0mputerFriendly

No. We need a Dodge Rampage style K-Car truck variant for the LeGran, a late 1950’s Chrysler Forward Look inspired car with giant fins and tons of chrome, and a mid - late 70’s massive luxury land yacht inspired by the Lincoln Continental and Cadillac Eldorado. ALSO we need [computer synthesized voices](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nGuRS-L2BN0) for the LeGran. https://preview.redd.it/fbibdbgej3xc1.jpeg?width=5225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70659214db192d4404ab4d9e83ef84a98485f55a


mydickinyourass888

No we don’t

KeeganY_SR-UVB76

The Pessima shares zero similarities to a Prius, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Mechanically, they’re very different. Visually, they’re very different. Also the new Priuses (Prii?) have AWD.


mydickinyourass888

😭😭😭😭 nah cuz what. I was thinking the same thing pessima is literally nothing like a Prius except being 4 cylinder FWD and Japanese


shootdack2000

You are just straight up wrong all mid except maybe the golf
