Welcome to this year’s AutoTrend Car of the Year award! Last year was, well, a bit of a let down. So, we went back to the drawing board. We’ve changed some things that will greatly enhance the competitor’s experience! Our biggest thing is that now, you can enter your own cars! You don’t have to take one of the provided vehicles. But don’t worry if you entered last time, your cars will be entered automatically!
List of existing competitors:

Below is a taste of what you can do.
Here’s our lineup of cars that you can use(if you want to):
And here we have some info on each car:
A 1970s Eco Car
It’s not the fastest, it’s definitely not the strongest, but with it’s high(er) suspension, this thing’ll take the bumps very well. The Eco is also probably the most maneuverable, being rivaled by only the Hatchback. A very good all-rounder.
A 2000s SUV
Maybe the worst vehicle, but it’s the strongest. And for some reason, this car seems to have the largest fuel tank. 'Nuff said. Mods Required: Steam Workshop::Bull bar basic
A 1980s Pickup
So, strangely, this might be the fastest vehicle here. Not the quickest, and not the strongest. Also has a tendency to spin. Mod Requirements: Steam Workshop::Bull bar basic
A 1960s Police Car
Sadly, (because this car is representing the muscle cars), it is the slowest, least maneuverable, and is just miserable. The years have not been good to this car. It does have 1 saving grace, though: It’s the toughest car here. Basically. Mods Required: Steam Workshop::Bull bar basic
Steam Workshop::Old Style Police Lights
A 1990s Sedan
The middle-ground. The all-rounder. The jack-of-all-trades. These are the words to describe this sedan. The only thing it wins at, is spinning-out. Which isn’t a challenge.
A 1990s Hatchback
Some pros: Car can be used as a ramp, the Hatch is very maneuverable, and it can survive front and back flips. Now, for the juicy cons: No strength, uh… that’s it. Maybe a better bet than we thought.
A 2000s Sportscar
Our final car. It’s very quick, easy to drive, AWD. But avoid fast head-on collisions. Please! The boxer engine is quite close to the front of the car.
Ok, here’s a more, statistical approach(stock):
Off-road: 1st Pickup, 2nd SUV.
Top Speed: 1st Pickup, 2nd Sportscar.
Acceleration: 1st Sportscar, 2nd Pickup.
Strength: 1st Police Car, 2nd SUV.
Maneuverability: 1st Hatchback, 2nd Sportscar.
Suspension(Bumps): 1st Eco Car, 2nd SUV.
Gas Mileage: 1st SUV.
Now, it wouldn’t be a competition if it didn’t have rules, so here they are:
Budget is $9,000 at a -30% margin.
Improving quality is allowed, but only if you swap out the original part out.
Be sure to take in effect what changes you make. For example: If you only have 1 seat, you can’t bring along all of your raiding buds! Or, if you strip out the radio, you won’t be able to call anyone for help. So watch for details!
Oh, we almost forgot, here’s the list of events we’ll be testing your cars at(IN BEAMNG.DRIVE):
- Suspension test.
- Survivability test. (Everyone will flee before each other and we’ll see who survives. Fuel economy, toughness, and speed will all come into play.)
- Oval race.
- 60/30 mph crash tests.
- Off road race.
- Off road drag race.
- Demolition derby.
Ok, it’s the moment of truth. Here we have provided the keys. What will you take?
