It's not showin' up in Update 1.44 either, nor is that ever-so-elusive F-100 truck. Does SCS no longer have changelogs for AI cars?

Well, one of them based on this design did make it... but in the form of a storm drainage truck... in update 1.45. Wrecker's still nowhere to be found.

Yep. Only shows up in the base game's maps like the limo, garbage truck and streetsweeper. I wish they provided it for other regions, since taxis have been used in urban areas.

Knowing SCS, they could consider regional taxi models, like how they did for the police cars. They could also have used other cars like the Prius, etc. and use them in major cities.

I wish ETS 2 would feature taxi cars though. But I doubt that.

They could have just debadged this car, just like the recent Outback.
And it appears they did as of 1.46.

Honestly SCS' choice of AI vehicles for ATS has always been kind of strange to me with many cars that at least according to what I have looked up seem to be rather rare in the USA.


I agree. I don't understand why SCS can't just add vehicles that are actually specific in the USA. They could've added a 3rd or 4th generation Silverado instead of an Advance.

So, now the pics have been provided, I'll give you the rundown about this truck: You'll need the Cabin Accessories pack as well for navigation because this truck is from the early 2000s, and infotainment systems were hardly a thing for that era.

I like this model they made. I hope SCS sees additional old trucks, but given their rarity today, it's doubtful, but if possible they could add as some are still on American roads:

-Peterbilt 387
-Mack Vision
-Peterbilt 379
-Older Freightliner Cascadia (not the one from 2018 or the newer facelift)
-Freightliner Century
-Freightliner Columbia
-Freightliner Coronado
-Freightliner Classic
-Kenworth T-2000

Again they're quite a stretch because finding most of them are difficult because of daily usage and being scrapped. I left out cabovers because they have basically been phased out in the U.S. since 2007 afaik. But never say never.

As of 1.48 these now spawn in the AI vehicle rotation.

As of now the new International truck is actually one that's from the 2000s. SCS finally embraced the older truck trend and brought us the International 9900i Eagle.

Could SCS bring about old trucks for the first time?

EDIT: I have added it but it is currently a placeholder shot. So until someone has proper pics for it, my name will not be credited.

True, and according to the wikipedia it is based on the Opel Astra sedan. So I'll rescind my hasty edit to USA.

I don't want to stick where I shouldn't, but some current Buick models are still vehicles that have been based on Opel cars: the current Buick Regal was based on the Opel Insignia; the Buick Encore, in the Opel Mokka; and the one you supposedly say, the Buick Verano, was based on the Opel Astra Sedan.

The Verano is based on the Chevrolet Cruze, but they also used references to the Astra, which would otherwise be Opel-based.

Yes it may be built in the U.S. but Buick back then used Opel model architecture. It's nothing like that anymore since GM sold Opel to Groupe PSA (which was also merged to form Stellantis).

Why not ask SCS to add a minivan to this game? There are many choices:

-Dodge Grand Caravan
-Chrysler Pacifica (not the older crossover SUV)
-Toyota Sienna (I hear their recent model is edgy and cool-looking)

It would also not hurt to add older vans, considering they added a Chevy Van in the Wyoming expansion. The GM 'Dustbuster' vans is a good start, considering their rarity today.

This S-Max they put in is inexcusable. They don't sell it here, and this is one of the two vehicles they have in ATS that don't actually sell in America.

Most likely so. Unfortunately there isn't a civilian version of this and it only appears in Utah, so sadly I haven't seen one.

Frankly regular commuter cars like this give ATS some variety in the traffic. But it's a slow process.

It also wouldn't hurt to bring over certain ETS 2 cars over to ATS, as they are also sold in America. For example the Jeep Renegade and the Lamborghini Huracan would be good additions, as would the Mazdas they got.

Seems they just took a regular civilian Impala and slapped a lightbar and spotlight onto it, as evidenced by the alloy rims. They do have proper rims for it in the game files but its not coded to show up, probably a bug.

Wow I did not know that, it is pretty cool they add in new AI cars with such attention to detail. It is possible that now that the new trucks for both ETS2 and ATS have been finished and released the vehicle modelling team might focus a bit on the AI cars for both games. While ETS2 has way more AI models, it needs some newer cars at this point in my opinion. For ATS, I think they lack some cars like the Corolla or the Camry which are very common in there and adding them in would make the game even more immersive. Of course AI mod packs relegate this issue to a large extent but I think it would still be cool to have more vanilla models too.


While I can agree with this, the problem is that there are way too many vehicles in this game that are very rare to be found in the USA. For example, there's too much classic cars driving around and the chance of finding them on the real US roads is about 10%. Many ETS2 models have horrible detail, yes, but at least they have cars that are quite specific in Europe. SCS should make it so that classic AI vehicles have a chance of showing up by 25%, and there should be way more vehicles, in fact, a hundred more vehicles that are common in the USA added into ATS. Why no Camry, why no Model 3? Get what I am saying? So yeah.

Developers said they made this car specifically for use as the Washington State Patrol variant. State police variants were also made for New Mexico, California, and Nevada, but they do not spawn in the game although they are present in the game files. An unmarked version spawns as a civilian car, though they were never marketed for civilian sale in North America.

This van is actually quite rare, though. I've seen it a few times but not as frequently as the other vans like the Chevy Express and the NV200-based City Express.

Strangely, this vehicle does not have a rear license plate - it's illegal to not have any license plates in the U.S.

Also, what's wrong with the driver??
