    I would like to see more modern vehicles. when u spawn traffic, it feels like u r driving around in the early 2000s with all the pessimas, covets and wendovers. I feel like the only truly modern car we have is the Bastion. Thanks to Teaser Tuesday though, hopefully we have another modern vehicle on the way. The sunburst also needs a modernized release, since it feels like just a 2015 car, so 10yrs old. Just like the Mitsubishi Attrage. We also need a modern pickup truck and a new van, since the ones we have are very 90s and early 2000s. Dont get me wrong, BeamNG is a peak game, the best in my opinion! And the devs are great but as the younger generation playing, I think we need a couple of modernazations.
    THX! ;)

    Very small suggestion, I was just wondering if we could have the small plow on the MD series also be available for the T series. I find the regular plow for the T Series to just be too big for driving around on any map that isn't Gridmap, and would love something more compact that still gives me the ability to move traffic cars out of my way for my favorite semi truck. If not, how about just a regular snow plow? They do make snow plows for semi trucks, and I think it would be neat to see a few configs based around snowy weather for the T series, as snow covered maps are popular in the modding scene.

    Here's my photoshopped attempt at what a Soliad-branded luxury sedan produced from the early to late 90's would look like,

    This car is the Soliad Gemstone, produced from '90 to '00.
    upload_2026-3-20_13-54-15.png
    upload_2026-3-20_13-54-22.png
    The exterior is based off the 1993-'98 Chrysler LHS/New Yorker, with front dashboard being based off the 1992-'96 Cadillac Fleetwood, The car shares the same steering wheel and stereo unit as the in-game Soliad Lansdale, while having a fully digital gauge cluster similar to that of the in-game Soliad Wendover (Analog cluster is also included, mainly used for lower end trim models and some trim models produced from 1996-2000)

    Hello BeamNG Team, This is Evan Newcomb Here!

    I hope you’re all doing well! I wanted to share a vehicle suggestion that I believe would be a great addition to BeamNG.drive and would fill a noticeable gap in the current vehicle lineup.

    Suggestion: Gavril “Eagle-Style” Intercity Coach Bus & Motorhome
    BeamNG currently includes a solid variety of vehicles, including the Wentward DT40L city bus and the Gavril MD-Series school bus. However, there is currently no long-distance highway coach bus in the game—and no large, detailed motorhome/RV based on a coach platform.

    Adding a classic American-style intercity coach, along with an RV variant, would introduce entirely new driving and gameplay experiences focused on long-distance travel, touring, and living-on-the-road scenarios.

    Why This Is Missing
    Right now, players don’t have vehicles designed specifically for:

    • Highway cruising and cross-country travel

    • Mountain touring with heavy passenger loads

    • Large motorhome/RV gameplay (living space + driving challenge)
    This leaves a big opportunity for expansion.

    Vehicle Concept
    I’m suggesting a Gavril-branded intercity coach bus, inspired by classic Eagle-style buses, along with a motorhome (RV) variant built on the same platform.

    Possible Names:
    • Gavril Soarliner 75

    • Gavril Silverhawk Coach

    • Gavril Interstate Cruiser

    • Gavril Trailhawk Motorhome (RV variant)
    ⚙️ Key Features (Coach Bus)
    • Rear-engine diesel layout

    • Air suspension with realistic body roll and lean

    • Large panoramic windshield

    • Underfloor luggage compartments (openable)

    • Detailed passenger interior with reclining seats and overhead storage
    ️ Key Features (Motorhome / RV Variant)
    • Full interior living space (beds, seating, kitchenette)

    • Walkable cabin design (for future or static detail)

    • Storage compartments for travel gear

    • Roof-mounted AC units and accessories

    • Heavier weight affecting handling and braking
    Gameplay Potential
    This vehicle family could introduce new gameplay opportunities:

    ️ Highway Driving
    • Smooth long-distance cruising

    • Stability and wind effects
    ️ Mountain Driving
    • Brake fade on long descents

    • Rollover risk due to height and weight

    • Suspension stress and load shifting
    Scenarios
    • Tour bus routes

    • Cross-country driving missions

    • RV camping/travel scenarios

    • Emergency downhill/brake failure situations
    Why Gavril?
    Gavril is the best fit because:

    • It represents American-made vehicles

    • It already includes trucks, vans, and the school bus

    • A coach platform naturally expands into both passenger and RV configurations
    Real-World Inspiration: Eagle Coach Models
    To help visualize the concept, here are some real Eagle coach models that could inspire the design direction:

    • Eagle Model 01 – Early rounded design from the 1950s–60s

    • Eagle Model 05 – Iconic sleek aluminum coach with curved windshield

    • Eagle Model 10 – Updated structure with a more modern look

    • Eagle Model 15 – More refined and aerodynamic later design
    These coach platforms were also commonly converted into motorhomes, making the RV variant a natural and realistic extension.

    Additional Ideas
    • Multiple variants representing different eras (vintage to modern)

    • Custom liveries (tour companies, charter services, RV styles)

    • Luxury, sleeper, and custom conversion configurations

    • Optional tuning for heavy loads and long-distance endurance
    Summary
    A Gavril coach bus and motorhome platform would:

    • Fill multiple missing categories in the game

    • Add new gameplay styles (transport and RV travel)

    • Fit naturally within BeamNG’s vehicle ecosystem

    • This will be for a future update
    Thank you for your time and for all the amazing work you’ve put into BeamNG.drive. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this idea!

    Best regards,
    Evan Newcomb

    Hey excuse me; did anyone read my post about the Gavril Eagle for the future update yet? If they did I think it would be really good for the game

    Hi everyone,

    I just wanted to follow up on my Gavril Eagle concept and explain it a bit more clearly.

    My idea is to introduce a classic intercity coach from the 1970s–1990s, since the game already has transit and school buses, but not a long-distance highway coach from that era. The goal is to add a different type of driving experience focused on highway travel, larger vehicle handling, and unique crash behavior.

    I also tried to design it with multiple configurations in mind (like standard coach, RV conversion, and utility versions) so it could fit different gameplay scenarios.

    One thing I think is important is keeping the size balanced, so it can still handle tighter roads and avoid clearance issues.

    I’d really appreciate any feedback or thoughts on this idea. Thanks for taking the time to read it!

    Thanks, but I really
    Don’t know how to mod, I was just making this as an official idea for the whole beamng drive crew, you know, if they think that it would be cool if the game added in a classic American intercity coach of the 70s to the 90s, you know, like a replica of the Eagle bus but used as a gavril model.
    --- Post updated ---
    Or I meant to say,


    Thanks, I really appreciate that!

    I’m not very familiar with modding yet, so this was more of an idea I wanted to share with the community and the developers. I thought it could be interesting to see a classic American intercity coach from the 1970s to 1990s added to the game.

    Something inspired by the Eagle buses, but adapted into a Gavril-style vehicle to fit BeamNG.drive’s design and branding.

    I just wanted to put the idea out there and see what people think.
    --- Post updated ---
    Does anybody have any other Ideas you wanna add or support for the Gavril Eagle?

    1971 - 1975 Soliad Toreador Hearse (Based off the 1973 Pontiac Grand Ville and the 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood hearses.)

    "The Professional Choice"

    The Toreador, Soliad's flagship luxury model throughout the 1970s, was built on a modified Moonhawk chassis as a way to pump out more cars at a faster rate, allowing Soliad to keep up with Gavril's massive amount of vehicles built year after year. However, the Moonhawk chassis is nowhere to be found in the Toreador's hearse variant, instead using Bruckell's commercial chassis in order to fit it's coach built, elongated body, heavy duty suspension parts, and the necessary amount of luxury to give anyone a dignified farewell.

    Variants:

    The Tormentor: An old Toreador Fleet Hearse pulled from a junkyard and rebuilt into the ultimate demolition derby monster. Includes derby bumpers, a reinforced radiator, welded doors, a bolted, cut hood, exhaust stacks, a derby roll cage, a fuel cell, removed lights, removed glass, a welded rear diff, mud terrain tires, and a "Rigor Mortis" demolition derby livery.

    Fleet: The cheapest of two standard trim levels sold to funeral homes during it's heyday, equipped with a 180hp 6.6L V8 coupled to a 3AT. Other features include a vinyl top, chrome mirrors, leather seats, a wooden dash, opera lights, and even a complimentary casket as standard.

    Grandeur: The second and fanciest trim level of the Toreador Hearse, equipped with a 250hp 7.5L V8 coupled to a 3AT. Also comes equipped with whitewall tires, an upgraded radiator, a front sway bar, extra chrome trim, and luxury hubcaps.

    Custom: A Toreador Hearse Grandeur that's been modified into a hot rod that will raise the dead! Modifications include a custom intake, custom side pipes, stainless exhaust headers, a 4AT drag racing transmission, a Gavril D10 Zeta rear axle, wider wheels and tires, upgraded brakes, a custom ram air hood, a 100kW nitrous system, and custom hot rod flames.

    Limo: Custom built for a 2010s metalcore band, the floor rollers and casket have been ripped out of the back of this Toreador Hearse Grandeur and been replaced with a custom couch, bar, and TV setup. Other modifications include custom wheels, side pipes, red headlight lenses, a custom grille, and a custom band livery.

    Torpid: A Toreador Hearse Fleet that looks like a complete rustbucket, yet is anything but neglected. Includes a patina paint job, vinyl removed from the roof, custom red steelies, slammed suspension, a chopped and channeled body, skull tipped exhaust pipes, custom quad carburetors, a cut hood, an upgraded radiator, a custom front bumper made from a cemetery gate, and a wooden steering wheel.

    Reaper: The only surviving stunt car of the mid 2000s slasher flick "Highway to Hell 3: Reaper's Return." This Toreador Fleet Hearse has been given a custom reinforced front bumper and bullbar, purple headlight lenses, purple interior lights, purple underglow, aftermarket wheels, a racing bucket seat, a nomi racing wheel, a heavy duty radiator, a fuel cell, a skid plate, and chassis reinforcements.

    Drag: Given a massive supercharger, drag racing slicks, and a drag racing transmission, this Toreador Grandeur Hearse is something that will stand out on the drag strip. This custom hearse has also been given an upgraded suspension system, a ultra heavy duty engine block, a 150kW nitrous system, racing brakes, a racing radiator, a front line lock, a roll cage, a racing bucket seat, a fuel cell, a wheelie bar, side pipes, a cut hood, a custom air dam, and a Speeding Specter drag racing livery.

    Exterior and Interior: (Based off the Fleet model)

    The Ibishu BX "Type-III" (1995–2004) (Essentially facelifted versions of the BX-Series)

    Lore (NOTE: Lore is combined with Kueso's KLJP mod and VipVap's Ibishu Plus mod): By 1995, the original BX-Series (1987-1989 and 1990–1994 respectively) was aging. To compete with the rising popularity of the Hirochi SBR4's predecessors and the high-end ETK coupes, Ibishu introduced another substantial update rather than a full generation change. This "Type-III" facelift was designed to keep the platform relevant for the drifting and touring car scenes of the late 90s, Notable changes were that a driver's-side airbag was now standard, alongside there being a new front fascia shape with fixed headlights (popup headlights were still optional), a new steering wheel, an optional gauge cluster with a digital mile odometer, and an optional electronic AC unit, Notably, a touchscreen, reminiscent of the one in the MK2 Pessima Zenith released the year before was available as an option for the JDM market and a manual AC unit could still be ordered with both USDM/EUDM 240BX and JDM 200BX/Diana/Alexia. Unfortunately though, when Ibishu discontinued the BX-Series platform in 2004, production of the facelifts stopped as well.

    1994-2006 Bruckell Argon Platform

    I have no experience in modding whatsoever, but i'd love to see a modder pick this idea up. I think Beam is sorely lacking in small compacts other than the Covet

    Following the rise in popularity of compact cars in the US and Canada, usually made by foreign automakers, Bruckell suddenly saw a small gap in their lineup. When their main competitor, Gavril, partnered with Arima to introduce a compact sedan to their line, called the Cambria, Bruckell rushed to develop a small compact of their own. Over the next few months, engineers worked around the clock, which resulted in the Bruckell Argon. The Argon debuted in March 1993 as a 1994 model, and was offered in either a sedan or coupe body style. Initially released as a Bruckell exclusively, a cheaper Accomack variant was released in the following months after several critics complained that it was just a tad bit too expensive for the base variant. Overall, reviews were rather positive, even earning a “Best Value” award by Beamtrend magazine in January 1995


    The Argon was a near-immediate success, selling over 40,000 units (Bruckell and Accomack combined) in the first half of the 1994 production year. Part of this was due to the infamous “Greetings” ad campaign that was broadcast on television all over the United States and Canada. By the end of production in late 2005, all variants of the Argon will have sold over 3,000,000 units worldwide.


    Seeing the major success in North America, Bruckell saw the opportunity to release a small compact in Europe. However, in Europe, Bruckell was seen as a manufacturer of large, boaty, gas-guzzling American cars, and the Argon wouldn’t fit the brand identity. To work around this, Bruckell introduced their luxury division, Soliad, to the European market with a different brand identity. Instead of giant luxury cars, Soliad was marketed in Europe as selling efficient, practical, modern vehicles. Under this strategy, the Argon was launched in Europe under the Soliad brand. This turned out to be a great success, and helped allow Bruckell to introduce the Lansdale in Europe using the same strategy a year later. Bruckell also offered a sport-oriented trim of the Argon called the Sport SE, equipped with all the luxury features of the SE, and a turbocharged 3.3L 6 cylinder engine, making 235 bhp.


    The second generation of Argon was vastly improved over the first generation, feeling much less cheap and looking a lot sharper. In 2003, The Argon received a facelift. Sales began to decline for the aging platform, and the Argon was finally discontinued after the 2006 model year in favour of a new, updated vehicle with a new name.

    ATTACHED ARE SOME IDEAS FOR CONFIGS, AND VERY ROUGH DRAFTS OF AN INTERIOR

    I have 3 suggestions for the best game of all time, BeamNG.drive...
    This will also be my new form factor of thread content I post

    1. Small, light, mini city van... Something like LucasBE's Gavril Scout. Name... Gavril H-Series City
    2. Large, Euro-style van... Something similar to the real life Ford Transit, Fiat Ducato (RAM ProMaster in NA), or Mercedes-benz Sprinter. Names... Autobello Transportare/Bruckell TransPro, ETK Conveyor, Gavril Ecostal
    3. Multi-stop truck/Step Van... Something like the IRL Ford F59, Chevrolet Step Van, and something Battery Electric like the little-known Modec eStar. Names... Gavril SV-Series (thx whatawhat for the name) Bruckell MultiStop, Wentward Trans-E
    TLDR; Three van types that would be useful in career and I just wasted my time typing

    Hello, would it be too much to ask for tire sidewall textures, matching the type of tire I'm using? Not all the way down to the size ofc that would be wayy too much work.
    Buttt for example; Sidewalls having the type of tire I'm using as well as the matching tread, like all-seasons, wet, street, semi-slicks, slick, racing
