Ford E-Series

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
Has to be at least an E-350, if not an E-450, since it has dual rear wheels.
Saturn ION

FlatOut 2 (2006)
I still stand by my interpretation of a first generation Neon with an ION front end and the back end of a late model Australian Ford Falcon.
International DuraStar

Gangstar: Vegas (2013)
International DuraStar?
Suzuki Wagon R

Shutokō Battle Xtreme (2017)
If I recall properly, the RR-DI version of the Wagon R was basically the predecessor of the Stingray model, introduced in 2007, a little over a year before the Wagon R was redesigned, right?
Toyota bB

Choro Q Wii (2008)
Yeah, they certainly messed that up when localizing the game. The second generation xB wasn't a rebadged bB, as this car is, but rather a rebadged Corolla Rumion, which was related to the bB, but larger and designed to appeal to American buyers so it could be sold at the xB.
Dodge Viper

Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure (2003)
Lemme guess, shrunken down version of the model from THPS4?
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X

Project CARS 2 (2017)
Looks like an FQ-400 to me.
Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

Built for Speed (2016)
Quad headlights = 1979+

Thumb Drift (2016)
This honestly looks more like a texture glitch than a separate model.
Austin Mini Cooper

Austin Mini Cooper or Morris Mini Cooper?

Renault 5 Turbo
Opel Corsa

Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk6?
Chevrolet Task-Force Apache

Built for Speed (2016)
Looks like an International RXT that's been shortened to a regular cab.

Built for Speed (2016)
1970 Ford Escort RS1600 Mk1
Mercedes-Benz Axor

Driving School 2016 (2016)
Mercedes-Benz. Definitely a Mercedes-Benz.
Saturn Aura

Driving School 2016 (2016)
Not a Vectra. The back end is too rounded, and the textures don't match. What this is...is a Saturn Aura.
Subaru WRX STi NR4

DiRT 4 (2017)
I'm actually surprised it's a JRM Group one and not a Vermont SportsCar one.
Olsbergs MSE RX Super Car Lite

DiRT 4 (2017)
Pretty awesome that the Super Car Lites finally make an appearance.

Any chance we might see GRC in as well as World RallyCross in this one? It would be awesome to see the Honda Civic and Volkswagen Beetle GRC cars.
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI

DiRT 4 (2017)
It's a rally Lancer. 9 out of 10 times, it's an Evolution. That's just a simple fact of rally cars.
Toyota Corolla

Red Seeds Profile (2010)
Ah, yes, the Toyota Corolla [KE70]. I agree.
Daihatsu Move

Shutokō Battle Xtreme (2017)
Well, if we go by the Moves listed on this site, no video game has featured a Move newer than this generation (not counting Conte or Latte, which are spinoffs based on the Move chassis).

So, honestly...it's not really a surprise that it's an older one when it seems no developer has considered a newer model.
Mercedes-Benz SL

Red Seeds Profile (2010)
Honestly, the whole thing looks like a highly altered 1994-97 Ford Mustang to me.
Toyota Corolla

Red Seeds Profile (2010)
I thought it was a Renault Alliance at first, but now I'm not entirely sure...
Nissan Maxima

Red Seeds Profile (2010)
Volkswagen Quantum [B2]?
Isuzu Trooper

Red Seeds Profile (2010)
Front looks like it came off of some sort of late 80's-early 90's Japanese sedan, body looks like a Range Rover, rear texture is DEFINITELY first generation Saturn VUE.
Daihatsu Move

Shutokō Battle Xtreme (2017)
The Move (and Move Custom) is one of Daihatsu's most popular models in Japan, and there is a bit of popularity in the tuner scene there with these as well.

In fact, DAMD even made a body kit for one generation that made it look like a Chrysler up front...

www.damd.co.jp/products/imagesCars/move_cust04_bm_a.jpg

...love it or hate it, you've gotta admit, they executed it rather decently.
International 9400

San Francisco Rush: Extreme Racing (1996)
Mack Super-Liner?
Toyota Hilux Surf

Drift City (2007)
I know nothing's been brought up on this in over 5 years, but...it's not a 4Runner.

Look at the windshield, see the steering wheel? Yeah, right hand drive.

Also, there's wing mirror on the fender, typical of JDM vehicles.

So, it's not a 4Runner, it's a Hilux Surf.
Ford E-Series

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
Spawns normally in the following variants/liveries:

- Tidis Corporation
- Galilei
- Tidy Bananas (basically, the van of the window cleaners you see at Auto Elite and Total Motors dealerships)
- Pharmingtons
- Ladder Rack
- CTOS Ladder Rack
- WKZ San Francisco with broadcast satellites on the roof
- Import/Export
- Various graffiti covered liveries, including a 580s one.
Chevrolet El Camino

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
I find it funny what the name translates to...The Chair!
Lincoln LS

Unreal Tournament 2004 (2004)
How about the 2001 Lincoln MK9 Concept?
Willys Jeep FJ-3

Snack Truck Fever (2015)
Nope, it's a Willys Jeep FJ-3 Fleetvan.
Nissan GT-R Nismo

ドリフトスピリッツ (2013)
The Nismo was introduced for 2015, wasn't it?
Daihatsu Copen

Shutokō Battle Xtreme (2017)
Not is it the first Copen Cero, it's the first licensed second generation Copen, period!
Mazda CX-3

Shutokō Battle Xtreme (2017)
Agreed. It's great to see them diversifying their vehicle selection beyond typical tuner cars.

Especially when the Japanese market has such a great variety of cars to choose from.

Maybe some foreign cars will make an appearance, too? The 6th generation Camaro (officially sold in Japan, albeit still left hand drive) would be pretty nice to see here, and would fit in great.

Maybe a classic Toyota Sports 800? Or one of Nissan's retro cars from the late 80's-early 90's (Figaro, Be-1, Pao, S-Cargo)?

Maybe with the apparent end of the exclusive agreement between EA and Porsche, maybe a 930 Turbo?
Mazda CX-3

Shutokō Battle Xtreme (2017)
First CX-3 in a video game.

Interesting fact: the Japanese market CX-3 is offered exclusively with the 1.5L SkyActiv-D engine. No gasoline powered option.
Nissan Quest

Drive for Speed Simulator (2014)
Any other angles? Because from here, it could be a Mercury Villager as well.

Even if it is a Quest, it's one of the first three generations, so origin is US, not Japan.
unknown

Downhill Domination (2004)
Not sure of the rear, but the front and side certainly look like an early 00's Camry to me.
Honda Civic

Downhill Domination (2004)
And the wheels look like they came off of a late 90's-early 00's Ford van.
Hägglunds Bv 206

Downhill Domination (2004)
Hägglunds Bandvagn 206?
Hägglunds Bv 206

Downhill Domination (2004)
Hägglunds Bandvagn 206?
International Transtar

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
Agreed, it certainly seems to match the 387 much better than the TranStar, while the vent on the cowl looks like that of the International DuraStar, just flipped upside down.

Also notable is that this truck design seems to have replaced the cabover design also found in the orignal WD, save for the garbage truck variant, as garbage trucks altogether seem to have been omitted in this game.

The Small Box Truck version of the cabover was replaced by the MatarHorn Trucks Boxvan, and the WKZ Truck version was replaced by the MatarHorn Trucks Media Broadcast Truck, both of which share the same cab design with the Flatbed.

Those variants were also joined by the new Dump Truck and Middleweight DC variants, giving MatarHorn Trucks a rather comprehensive lineup of commercial products, joined by the Convoy, the new MRAP, the City Bus, and the Firetruck.

Though, looking at the emblem on the front of the cabovers in the original WD, they were also MatarHorn Trucks products, meaning the company must have offered two cab designs to give customers a choice.

Maybe when developing the game (remember, during the game's development, Ubisoft Montreal made frequent trips to California, so I'm sure they picked up something on what sorts of vehicles are and aren't popular in the area in real life), they may have found cabover vehicles to be less popular in the Bay Area and decided on a completely conventional styled fleet of trucks in the sequel?

Might also explain the introduction of the Landrock Motors Cube Truck.
Fiat 500

Metal Carnage (2016)
It may have the scorpion on the hood and sides, but this looks more like a regular Fiat 500 than an Abarth.
Honda HR-V

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (2016)
Looks more like a Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe than an HR-V.
GAZ 233014 Tigr

Just Cause 3 (2015)
It does look a lot closer to the Sherpa, maybe with a couple hints of the Oshkosh L-ATV located at the top of that list in your link (mainly in the headlights and windows).
Piaggio Vespa

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
I made a slight error on the name, it's Molto Bene, not Motto Bene. Just fixed it.
Ford Edge

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
Unlike the police variant of the Cavale, the police version of the Talos is simply referred to as a Brubeck Engines Talos, though classified as a Police Vehicle instead of as a Standard Vehicle, like the normal Talos.
Toyota Carina

My Summer Car (2016)
If it's a Kadett, it would be a Kadett [C] (1973-79). If it's an Escort, it would be a Mk II (1974-81).

It could be one or the other, but honestly, I'm leaning towards the Kadett.

Though, honestly, the front grille and side markers remind me more of a Holden Torana [LH].
Toyota Prius

Watch Dogs 2 (2016)
Interestingly, if you summon a Valiance CE through Car on Demand, it may randomly spawn the taxi version instead of the standard one.

This likely indicates that the taxi isn't counted as a separate model from the normal Valiance CE, but rather the same as a liveried version of a standard vehicle, like the numerous liveried versions of the Landrock Van 2500, for example.

It also means that you can get a Valiance CE taxi with the paint job of your choice.

I'm willing to bet the game would do the same with the Vessel, Crosscountry Series, and Cavale.

Edit: Cavale taxi confirmed to be available the same way.
