I wouldn't say the Bolide got a facelift, it's just that the new body with the fixed headlights is there for distinguishing the Twin-Turbocharged versions from the NA ones. After all, the Twin-Turbocharged versions were produced at the same model years as the NA ones.
The Wendover was based on the LeGran, and the Wigeon was based on the Pigeon, so it makes sense for them to share engines (P.S. the Wendover also has a V8) The Bolide always had those V8s, while the Bastion is a big American muscle, any other engine wouldn't fit the type of car, so yeah, I'd say it's mostly a coincidence Now to the Civetta, there have been V6 supercars recently, like the Ford GT or the Ferrari 296 GTB, so a V6 Civetta wouldn't be too out of place, but since the devs don't have emission standards to follow , i assume they would go for something more exclusive, so I'd expect a V8 as a minimum Finally the Covet, the MR Turbo badge speaks for itself, a turbo V6 would be too much IMO, a I4 is a lot more likely, but seeing how there's a real life mid-engined Civic using a V6, it might be present as a different aftermarket config
I got a feeling. As most if not all new cars since about 2016/7 Have had some new thing that no other car has had. I think its a ideal for a V10 V12 ( Cough V16 anyone ) And said V8 AND V6. Like LWB back end for the V10 upwards And a smaller wheel back back end for the V6 And V6s. The smaller ones offering a Hybrid. ( as stranded ) and a Turbo AM not into Super cars/hyper cars i love german cars and Classic steel ( anymodel ) and Aussie cars. BUT seeing this super car. AND getting a Super car book last week. Am hyped. WITH said possible Hybrid ( no proof its even worked on ) I think They may/should add some vivace Hybrid and possibly a Older hybrid system to the sunburst. Moving on. I look forward to making a CHEAP Rear engine. Detuned with a Inline 4 ( is possible ) and makeing it like a Toyota MR2 If it was a hatch. Cheap affordable Sport car. But almost like a super car. But not . I cant wait for this update
Well... it technically is the same sound since the devs did invest in the sounds made for automation.
Also don't forget the Austin Rover Metro 6R4 for Group B Rallying (there was a mod for the Covet which represented it)! --- Post updated --- The V12 sound is much worse. It sounds like two BeamNG V6 sounds mixed together.
As for the Vivace Hybrid, I imagined a whole variety of Hybrid models! Vivace 200Hd (2.0 150hp Turbodiesel Inline-4 with a 50hp electric motor) Vivace 210H (1.6 160hp Turbo Inline-4 with a 50hp electric motor) Vivace 240HSd (2.0 190hp Turbodiesel Inline-4 with a 50hp electric motor) Vivace 280HS (1.6 230hp Turbo Inline-4 with a 50hp electric motor) Vivace S 370H (2.0 270hp Turbo Inline-4 with a 100hp electric motor) Vivace S 510Q Arsenic Hybride (2.0 310hp Turbo Inline-4 with two 100hp electric motors, one at each axle) Vivace S 610Q Arsenic Hybride (2.5 410hp Turbo Inline-5 with two 100hp electric motors, one at each axle) These powerplants can also be put in the Tograc too (provided that it first gets the normal equivalent versions of the Vivace - 230Sq, S 270Q, S 310Q Arsenic, S 350Q, S410Q Arsenic)!

The devs seem to know a lot about the content of the next update and seem pretty prepared for it to release in the near future, with this and the 32 bit deprecation announcement. I’ll say next week or so.
I love this car, after the V16 the owner swapped a 3-rotor in it, and now he switched to a 4-rotor, but i still think the V16 is the best
update ist not around the corner as stated, speculation cant be avoided for obvious reasons but let's stay realistic at least
They probably have bugfixes to do, maybe there is a big bug they are trying to figure out that is holding the update back. Especially if it concerns vulkan.
