These are my creations for my car manufacturer Lystex. Lystex is a car manufacturer that develops executive automobiles for the global market developing vehicles that challenge rivals in all areas of cars; hatchbacks, saloons of all sizes, 4x4s, crossovers, sports cars, MPVs etc.
LYSTEX HARRIER
The Lystex Harrier is an executive compact hatchback that rivals other small hatchbacks such as the Audi A1. Available with a range of naturally aspirated and turbocharged petrol engines ranging from 1.0 litre to 1.4 litres and from ~85 bhp - ~150 bhp, and a variety of small diesels (when diesels are available). Depending on the market only certain engines will be available and countries that use lower octane fuel will get a slightly less economical and less powerful version of the same engine (lower compression and ignition timing).
LYSTEX OSPREY
The Lystex Osprey is a mid-size saloon that rivals all sorts of cars from the Ford Mondeo/Fusion and the Volkswagen Passat to the Audi A4 and the Mercedes C-Class. Available with a range of turbocharged and naturally aspirated 4 and 6 cylinder engines ~120 bhp - ~250 bhp and turbocharged 4 cylinder diesel engines (possibly 110 bhp - 190 bhp). As with the Harrier engines and their output and fuel consumption depend on the market.
Photos in the attachments of the Lystex Harrison and the Osprey in the following post. Designs will be updated when more styling options are available.
NEW: Updated look for the Lystex Osprey. Now a bit less boring and much sportier and more agressive. More updates for Harrier and its engines arriving shortly.
The Osprey will be receiving the following petrol engines: 1.2 Turbo, 1.4 Turbo 145 PS, 1.4 Turbo 170 PS, 2.0 Turbo, 2.8 Inline-6.
The Osprey might be receiving the following petrol engines: 1.4 Inline-4 (might be a bit slow ~110 PS), 3.4 Inline-6 (might be a bit extreme for the European market ~260 PS)
NEW: Updated, more modern and more aggressive look for the Lystex Harrier. (You may spot some similarities with other cars in my models, this one especially!)
Confirmed petrol engines: 1.0 Inline-4, 1.2 Inline-4, 1.4 Inline-4, 1.2 Turbo, 1.4 Turbo 145 PS
Unconfirmed petrol engines: 1.4 Turbo 170 PS, 2.0 Turbo (Might be “sport” models)
The Lystex Falcon is a sports coupe that rivals large, powerful coupes and convertibles (hint that a convertible may appear) such as the Mercedes-Benz SL and the BMW 6-Series. Available in a variety of naturally aspirated and turbocharged inline 6 engines and one naturally aspirated 5.0 V8 ranging from 240 bhp - 425 bhp. More information soon on my website: lystex.weebly.com/index.html. Make sure to visit it!
All of my models are currently being redesigned and the engines are being re-engineered. Updates and images should appear within a few days and the website will be updated simultaneously.
Also, Lystex would like to announce a new brand developed entirely by us which will take the mechanical parts from Lystex vehicles but change the designs to be simpler and more basic along with the interior design and quality to produce a budget brand. Lower quality interiors, less equipment, smaller engines, simpler designs, lower construction costs thanks to simplified parts like suspension and cheaper materials (for example replacing aluminium body panels with steel ones) all contribute to the cost reduction. The first model will be based off of the Harrier’s chassis and share some of its engines. Announcement when a more updated version of the car designer is released.
Long time since I last posted and I since then a lot has been done to the cars and engines.
DESIGN
Constant slow tweaking of the looks to make them look similar yet make the less powerful cars look more “cute” and less agressive and the more powerful cars look sportier, because the Falcon looked boring and didn’t look right for the kind of car it is has ended up making the cars look almost completely different to what they looked like before, but at least now I am happy with them.
ENGINES
All the engines have now got a new ECO equivalent which costs more and takes longer to make, but has a fairly good improvement in efficiency, usually around 10 g/KWh better than the standard engine. The only improvements to the engine is under the fuel system. These engines when placed into cars will have skinnier tyres to reduce friction and also have aerodynamic tweaks made to them to make the slip through the air more efficiently (when the update with the aerodynamic tweaks is available and as far as I know, that isn’t the next one). These models will be called GreenDrive.
Also the V8s have received an S model which have around 30 bhp more and rev more. These are not quite as efficient as the normal V8 equivalent, and the vehicles that receive these engines (so far, only the Falcon) will be made slightly lighter, have chunkier tyres for extra grip and wings to help with downforce. These models will be called SportsLight.
Here are the cars and the official engine line-up for them:
Looking Good. Still waiting for the coming update to release mine though. I’ll probably be taking a different first step to you, Building my sporty sedan/coupe first.
