    These are very rare engines/powerplants (well, not the Single-cylinders and the FlexFuels, all the others)! Wow!

    A 2-Speed Auto could also be useful in a modern, stupidly quick/fast electric car with sporting road manners!
    But yes, a weird 70s/80s first attempt at an electric car could be very interesting! We can put its primitive battery to the test and see how far it can go and how much anxious/mad it can make us! :p

    Haven't spoken in here for a while, anyways, I feel ETK's are next in line for getting remastered, specially after we got PBR for the ETK Driving Center, can't remember if it's actually named like that.

    It could very well be true this one since the ETK Driver Experience Center has already been remastered, so it feels natural that the ETK models could be next in line. It also feels natural since the I-Series is already 5.5 years old (6-y.o. in July 23rd), so it needs a good remastering and content expansion, and also because the modern ETKs share many parts, are about to turn 7 years old in 2022 and they're incomplete in many ways, from lacking equipment/content to having unfinished structures and wrong/hastily done details, so they also need a good remastering.

    I wonder if the Community Mission Routes contest being restricted to the T-series and the flatbed trailer might be related to a partial remaster of the T-series. A trio of new missions certainly would be an excellent way to showcase a recently-updated vehicle.

    Looks like the rear quarter of a Renault 5 Turbo.

    Charmand 1304B is my prediction

    Seems like a widebody Covet at first ... Do you think that could mean Covet remaster ? o_O
    --- Post updated ---
    A French 80s hatchback like a Peugeot 205 would be too similar to the Covet, that's why i'm thinking this will be a part of a future covet remaster... But maybe a stock Turbo variant !

    Actually you could be right. The side strips look very similar to the Covet's.
    --- Post updated ---
    The only thing that throws me off is that a side skirt that outrageous just doesn't really suit a Covet.
    Or maybe its a Group B Covet with homologation special?

    Looks great!
    I bet it's a special version of the Covet with ultra-wide bulges, center-lug wheels and a mid-engine configuration!
    But it could also be an old Cherrier city car with an ultra-crazy version with the aforementioned details!

    P.S.1: The ultra-wide fenders and the mid-engine config could also mean a Group-B version is coming!
    P.S.2: Also, for a clearer view, here's the Twitter photo! :cool:

    The intakes look like the Renault 5 Turbo ones, maybe it will get a mid engine version?

    This Civic looks amazing and it's also got the mid-mounted Honda C30A! If this is the Covet, it would be amazing to have the 2.7 V6, Twin-Turbocharged or not! ;):cool:

    looks like the covet's side molding

    probably a group B config or something for a remastered covet?

    I’m honestly stumped with this. No idea what it could be. What I am pretty sure of is that 0.25 will be a pretty big update considering all of the vary guesses as to what it will be.

    As someone who just created a really nice tuned version of the Covet, it will be great to see it getting remastered! But if it's a different car, I am also okay with that.

    If this is a Covet remaster, it would be nice to see smaller engines for the Japanese and European markets. So possibly a 1.0 three cylinder or a 1.3 four cylinder engines. 1.5 has always seemed too large for this sort of car.

    Or a part of "Ipothetic" Covet Remaster... Or a new Civetta?
