I think the rear lights look more like a W212 model in my opinion. At least it's not one of those unholy abominations we're getting.

And it looks like we're getting the color schemes from the GLS so...

This model could also appear in ATS.

Seems like SCS is being a bit more cautious with car models. Clearly an E-Class W211 profile but with made up tail lights.

Seems like they made quite an intricate detail with the car itself. Pair of fuzzy dice seem awkward for a car this old.

I swear this model is just modified.

And, as I have said before, I will replace the entry with proper pics when the update is out. Probably by August, if the release date for the West Balkan DLC is revealed.

Again, I only partially agreed with Ericwanted as this is currently the only pic right now. I am acutely aware that there is another variant for Serbia and I will get proper pics for this Albanian police cruiser once the expansion is out for release.

Having said that it can't be a Rapid since production was long gone. I can't recall when it ended.

As with most cop models in ETS2 this will also have civilian models.

As we don't have a frontal pic of this car I can't get an exact model for this.

(Continuation of previous post)

Prior to 1.46 we had realistic cars. Yes, they were debadged for legal reasons, and especially on account of the fact that you can crash into them, but they were cars with a soul. ATS had the Chargers and many other cars like the Outback.

ETS 2 has a wide variety of cars, most of them regional based. But it's badly outdated, and so is ATS's AI roster. Both of which is also in the process of restructuring.

Remember how something small as debadging fictional cars adds up to something worse, like how a rot sets in and propagates everywhere? This is what we're seeing with AI cars, like this very car here. It looks like something that would look right at home... in True Crime: New York City.

But in hindsight, I will offer up solutions to the problem, and how they will be addressed. And no, the answer is not mods.

Kamiq comes to mind since they both share the same architecture.

I will replace the photos when the update is available.

But either way this is horrible. Why is SCS making these godawful hybrids of cars? I can't be the only one criticizing this right? We're doomed. :(

Vocal, if you can, will it help to shed some light to the devs and ask them to stop with the butchering of models? Up until now many of the AI cars were 1:1 in terms of accuracy. Now the alterations are all over the place.

I will heavily criticize this problem and have it addressed on Steam. Bet on it.

I checked it and it's not a Fabia. Looking at it perceptively it seems they went with Scala with a lot of modifications.

Since when did SCS went from making spot-on cars to making freakish abominations like this? This looks like something that Luxoflux would make (and yes I am aware this dev is non-existent) for a True Crime game.

They've made recent map expansions with passion yet they have poor choices with AI cars lately. What's with them??

any new AI vehicles from 1.46 on seem to be altered GTA-style.

Not if I have anything to say about this, and I spoke out about it on the 1.47 update for ATS.

"Not to nitpick, but can the new models NOT look like mashups of several different vehicles? I don't get it, we know none of the vehicles are licensed, but that's no way to ruin a vehicle's looks. Up until now the models looked just like their real-world variants. I respectfully hope any new additions are more of the latter (real-world models)."
-From the 1.47 discussion page on Steam (my handle is TruCrime)

And I really emphasized the NOT part of why the new AI cars should not be altered in any way.

No need to apologize, before today's blog I thought it was Fabia as well. Probably (since now all newer SCS AI vehicles are altered) it's a Scala with Fabia/Octavia front end.
There's also some new Mercedes that looks like a weird mix of W204 and W211.


Yeah I know about the Mercedes, I tried to add it but it wasn't approved for some dumb reason. It's also not possible to comment on the main game page here. This website gets dumber with every AI looking dumber in ETS2 :D

@Vocal95 We all thought it was a Fabia. We were screwed royally.

Also, can you ask why is SCS altering these new AI vehicles? Can you tell them (the designers) to stop with that and make their cars 1:1 to the real thing, just without badges?

Secondly, all this looks like the cars resemble those of True Crime: New York City. Which was a mediocre game at best.

Disregard the last sentence, since the Merc sedan is now uploaded.

I don't think this has anything to do with West Balkans apart from police duty, since the Scala is also available in Western Europe. Just checked on IMCDb they have a handful of entries on this model. Hell the Czech police use them as well, so it's possible it will also be in police form in the country - and it's part of the base game. Maybe it's a win.

Same with the new Benz sedan which I can't add for some reason.

So much for getting a new Fabia. I guess my spreadsheet got no attention and I've failed. I'm losing hope for seeing recreations of trendy Euro cars and it will have been in vain. I only say that because the Scala wasn't on my spreadsheet. Maybe I should've done that.

Today SCS's blogpost showed also side profile of the car, I've added it. I have to apologize, it's not Fabia, but you're correct, it's a Scala, although deformed. Makes sense for upcoming West Balkans, most probably it will be police car for Serbia, they have Rapids and Scalas recently.

Apparently the Benz sedan I tried to add wasn't being accepted. The hell? It's quite different from the white-cladded W124 AI car.

Did we just get a random update to this site that doesn't allow us to post pre-release material anymore?

Guess we'll just have to wait until 1.48 then. Damnit.

I don't get it either, but maybe they'll add it to ATS as it's popular stateside. Just like the Renegade.

...majority of the AI vehicles in American Truck Simulator are far too old/rare for US roads.

Yes, sort of. We have a 2020 Outback, alongside the '20 GLS (which should've been ATS only). But ATS needs a large infusion of old and new cars sold in the U.S.

Vxctec wrote
The fact that they have a current generation Tesla while ATS still uses the oldest Model S speaks out.

Not so much, considering the developer makes both of these trucking sims. A newer Model S, X or a Model 3 should be easy to model, if that's the case. But I prefer other EVs like the Mustang Mach-E and the Jaguar I-Pace.

I don't think that SCS properly knows what traffic in America looks like, but European traffic matches more towards this game.

Sadly that's just something that happens, especially considering they're from Prague. But I do want some of these models off ATS. Notably, the S-Max. I have pleaded, begged, and requested SCS multiple times to relinquish this shoebox-looking MPV from Ford of Europe's arm and replace it with the Jeep Renegade, and have proper minivans sold in America in its place. So far, they didn't do it. The S-Max (which btw they even made a worse prop for in ATS) is not sold here, and I have had public outcry (which is so extreme) about this that I even put up imgur links regarding its removal and I requested it be done soon.

And sadly your second part of the sentence isn't accurate too, since so many of these assets from ETS2 are really old. We don't have a T-Roc, there is a severe lack of trendy Euro cars, and we don't have nearly enough city cars. Pretty sad.

Because they came from the open beta. There's an evolutionary need to replace entries once they come out of the open beta and into the game proper. I'm pretty much the only one available to help out, so I did.

It ain't rocket science.

And yes, I chose Luxembourg. Your move.

Well it got deleted for no apparent reason because the one in Nuremberg was the same model (another calling card of SCS' asset reusability) and I asked for the Nuremberg variant to be removed. Unfortunately both were cut off.

So this Helsinki tram will have to be this permanent entry from here on out. (And it is because this is detailed compared to past DLC).

I'm not talking about the lack of branding because AI vehicles in ETS and ATS were never licenced to begin with, but the fact that recent AI models don't look like real vehicles anymore.
It is weird that recent vehicles in GTA Online are carbon copies of real cars (Brioso 300 or Tulip M-100 are basically unaltered Fiat 500/G-body Chevy Malibu only the badges are changed) while SCS started adding fictional GTA-style vehicles.
