In car's datasheet, the engine type says V5. However, the engine that was equiped in real life was not a V5, due the VW V5 engine was produced since 1997 until 2006. The real engine type was a inline-5 diesel.

I have noticed that in the beta of the game, the Volkswagen Race Touareg, Beetle RX and Polo RX had as optional the hood lights. What happens? That in the final launch of the game, those lights DID NOT GET EQUIPPED. Not even in night tests. The reason is that in the car selection menu, the miniatures of all three had the hood lights. However, when you have chosen one of the three, the hood lights do not appear. If anyone else knows about this, let me know.

I know that the image of the cabin does not look good due to the snowstorm. But curiously, the cabin has the same design as the 2003 Impreza WRC. What do I come to say? This car has the same display design as the Impreza WRC: Green digit display with rev counter. Unlike the Impreza WRC, which only has a tachometer, gear indicator and little else, this one has almost everything apart from the above: Stopwatch, speedometer ... Anyway, I hope someone gets the idea of knowing how it is in reality, even if it's in-game.

This car seems to equip a supercharger, instead of a turbo. When you are driving in a race it seems that it takes that, although the technical sheet inside the game says that it equips a turbo.

Another thing to add is that this car, according to its in-game data sheet, says that it equips a V6 engine in real life. Which within the game itself, when driving, the engine sound is not a V6, but a V8.

This car has a problem that does not make sense. The car in real life uses a 4 cylinder diesel engine. Which in the game, in the data sheet itself it has a 4-cylinder diesel engine, but the sound of the engine when driving is taken from the Mini Countryman RX. I wish they had put the diesel sound that equips the Mitsubishi Pajero, the BMW X3 or the VW Race Touareg to say a few.

Another thing to add is that in the dashboard camera, oddly enough, one of the needles to the left of the rev counter is that there is a kind of sound indicator. And as far as I know, a Stratos has NEVER carried a turbo in rallies (In group 4 of circuit races it did have a turbo). Looking at the technical sheet of the car within the game itself, it says that the type of engine it has is a V6 as mentioned in the previous comment ... but without turbo. It has nothing to do with it. It is an unsolved mystery.

Another thing to add is that in the technical sheet of the game, the type of engine that it equips is a 4 CYLINDERS IN LINE, instead of the typical traditional 4 CYLINDER BOXER. The sound of the car when driving is obviously a 4-cylinder Boxer as it is nothing like an inline 4-cylinder.

Dutch origin, actually a Mitsubishi Racing Lancer with a Ford V8 (5.0, likely a Coyote like in the Mustang).

The 2009 Mitsubishi Racing Lancer for the Dakar, apart from taking the Ford HRX body as a base, was also manufactured in the Netherlands.

There are two actual paintings of the car that don't match the year of the car even though they are really cool.
- One is blue with the letters RS in white, taken from the 2002 Ford Focus RS WRC driven by Estonian World Rally driver Marko Martin.
- The other paint is taken from the 2004 Castrol-sponsored Ford Focus RS WRC, also driven by Marko Martin.

There is one thing I do not understand. This car was in Group 4 of the World Rally Championship. However, the vast majority of cars that are in this group (Porsche 911, Porsche 959, Renault R5, Lancia 037 and Ford RS200) are from Group B. And if that were not enough, this car, in its years, was the most powerful in its category, as it had a V6 engine of Ferrari origin. I don't know if the Stratos was really a test car when Group B appeared.

Comparing the maximum speed of each vehicle with its own HUD with the dashboard camera of each car, given the conclusions, the speedometers of the vehicles are not well calibrated. What do you mean by that? That from 0 to 30 km / h it is calibrated, but from more than 30 km / h it is not completely calibrated. That only happens in those with a speedometer per needle.
However, in the case of digital ones there is a very interesting curiosity. If I change from the game options, in the HUD section, if I configure it to go to MPH, according to which cars with digital dashboard it is configured as expected from the game options: to MPH. Now, those that have a digital dashboard are well calibrated, from the moment it starts to its peak speed.

The weirdest thing about this car is that it has the steering wheel on the left. Usually the Vauxhall has them on the right, but I don't know why the game developers did it this way. It's more. It looks like a left-hand drive Opel Kadett GSi just like a Vauxhall Astra.

Very interesting story about this machine.

Started out as a 1959 Ferret ScoutCar (Origin: UK), and was heavily modified based on designs made by Toyo Tires and was built by Action Vehicle Engineering (the same team that built the Hot Wheels Rip Rod and '05 Mustang featured in the Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels expansion pack) out of Chatsworth, CA.

This has a 6 speed gearbox? I mean, electric motors lose power at higher speeds (similar to combustion engines) and a single gear ratio is a compromise - it can be optimized only for low or high speed driving.

But really, while they run out of puff, they still have an extremely wide powerband. Surely, a 2- or 3-speed transmission would be more sensible, wouldn't it? Less complexity, cost and weight.
