You need to also change the rear suspension type to an independent because a live suspension isn't exactly compatible with an electric motor
So, now that we have the last car from The List™ as well as the unexpected Wigeon in-game, what kind of car do you think we will see next? Do you think the Beam team will finally give in to the requests & finally add some sort of a supercar? Will it maybe be a hybrid? Or something as unexpected as the aforementioned Wigeon?
I smell vehicle suggestions Considering the wenover came with the legran remaster, and the wigeon came with the pigeon remaster, I could see it becoming a common thing to make a new car that platform shares with the car that's being remastered; -With the moonhawk, they may just do more body styles like a sedan/wagon/coupe utility, they may enlarge it, convert it to front-wheel drive and make an earlier wendover, or even a compact like a vega/gremlin/pinto. -The semi could get the long-suggested cab-over variant as a separate vehicle, -But what about the bolide? they could go front-engine and make a larger, possibly v12 GT car, or squash the roof down and fit a v12 in the back as a flagship supercar, they might stretch it out and make an uracco/mondial style MR 2+2, though the bolide is already abnormally long as it is. they may throw a complete curveball and go for something like a lamborghini LM002. (or it's possible that given the extent of work planned for the bolide, it's just going to get a heap of content on its own.)
About the semi, I have a feeling it could be remaster way in the future together with the bus, they would remaster the engines and make the bus and semi share turbos (currently they are completely different turbos performance-wise despite being called the same), and they would make 10-lug wheels universal, possibly shared by the trailers too... Generally I think despite the 2 vehicles being fundamentally different I think there's potential of them being remastered together to share some parts in the drivetrain, like the Grand Marshal and Roamer are way different but share the engines.
It could use either a double decker or articulated version, and also longer and shorter variant. And adjustable passengers weight too.
Just for reference, the New Flyer LF came in a lot of configs... 30/35/40 foot versions for standard versions and a 60' articulated version, several styling options, and 8 power source options (natural gas, hydrogen, diesel, several hybrid options, etc...)
Due to a lot of cities being highly interested in something cleaner than diesel buses, there has been a lot of research to meet that demand. Modern buses as a result are probably the vehicle with by far the most power source options available in real life. A lot of options for the devs to choose from.
With what I've heard recently, I'm thinking maybe the H-series gets a remaster sometime soon (maybe 0.24??) or perhaps the bolide gets it for 0.24. We've already seen a possible leak of the new bolide in the loading screens. Buuut with the recent trend of remasters coming along with new vehicles (pigeon and wigeon, wendover and legran, bluebuck, marshall) then maybe the remaster of the bolide would come with a new car. So I don't think we'll see the bolide remaster this year if it were to come with a new car. That is unless the devs have been working super behind the scenes on some new supercar.
Ah, thank you. That only further supports the theory that the bolide may come out with along with a new car. Exciting.
I'm wouldn't say it necessarily supports that idea specifically. Looking at the post-remaster interior and lights on the GM alone shows how much the scope has changed. Even without an associated new car we are looking at a big remaster; I imagine it'll be a ground up rebuild like the Pigeon got. That being said, there certainly is a pattern of releasing a cousin/sister car, so maybe we will see something.
True. Maybe the sister variant could be like the Charro and D-Series/FCV where its a different frame/body style off of the same vehicle.
