They need to get things straight about American traffic, honestly.


I have seen a couple decommissioned Caprice PPVs used by civilians, but it's pretty rare. ATS makes it look like they're all over the place.

Yes, and I noticed a trend where SCS and others are adding fictionalized vehicles in their games with some similarities to their real counterparts. It is happening in ETS with an example being the Model Y having completely different headlights.

I agree, just simply having German origin for a Verano is a bit weird.
IMCDB also has an option to add "Built in: [country name]" and "Made for: [country name]" next to the country origin, which could be useful for cases like this car - I think it would be a good idea to add these features to IGCD.
That would help clear up things a bit, since there are a lot of inconsistencies on the site right now - for example some of the Opel-based Vauxhalls have British, while others have German origin.

IGCD used to have the "made for" as well, but it was removed at some point.

Thanks for explaining this. If it was supposed to be an Opel, or something based on it, then it would make sense to list its origin as German, but this is clearly a Buick Verano which is a US-made vehicle, being in a US based game and is sold directly in the US market, so the origin being American is more valid. The design doesn't match the Opel Astra either, so that's another catch for listing it as a German vehicle. Same reason why some sedans are incorrectly listed as hatchbacks on IGCD.

Just to clarify, the "Origin" is to represent where the vehicle was originally created/designed/engineered.

Where the vehicle was actually built, is not taken into consideration, nor is the market it was sold in.

That is pretty much exactly what I said about the Buick, but the Transit is a different case.

The Transit has a history as a European market model dating back over 50 years, whereas it only came to the US market in 2014. Ford of Europe is based in Germany, and most EU-origin Fords are listed as German to reflect that, including most other Transits.

It's worth mentioning that the location of a vehicle's manufacture is not necessarily what the origin on IGCD refers to - instead it's more about the cultural context of what country the vehicle is associated with.


Still would make sense to me to name a vehicle made in a particular location and give it a different origin in another place.

I believe the reason for it being listed as German is because IMCDb views it as a rebadged Opel Astra. I'm not sure if that's an entirely correct assumption though - it does share the same platform as the Astra (as do many other vehicles like the Chevrolet Cruze & Volt), but unlike the Chinese Buick Excelle XT (which is literally an Astra with a Buick badge slapped onto it), the Verano/Excelle GT has it's own unique design.

There are only 2 manufacturing plants for the first generation Verano, one located in Michigan USA, and the other in Yantai, a city in China (Where it is branded as an Excelle). The production model in the US was manufactured from 2011-2016, and was the only one sold directly in the American market:
