Priorities
Performance: It needs to be able to keep up with criminals Reliability: The police can’t afford downtime Value: they can’t break the bank on upfront costs either, as they will be purchasing a fleet
Service costs: it can’t be too expensive to maintain Drivability: it would be nice if the officers didn’t have to wrestle the thing Safety: this car will be seeing some serious speed, so it better be safe
Offroad: it needs to be able to do at least light off-roading Comfort: It can’t be back breaking, but it doesn’t need to be a rolls royce either
Is the country of origin rule based on some real rule or just the US police only having American cars? I genuinely don’t know, the rule just seems very limiting.
Yes afaik the us does require cruisers to be cars made in the country, and many other countries like Japan or Germany use locally made cars
but, I might remove it because some countries use foreign cars
What kind of seating should we be going for? would +3 seating be enough to simulate the basic rear seats found in American police cars or do you want full seats in the back?
Also this would be my first submission to an automation competition and I’m wondering what the stance on workshop mods is? it seems like some people are including them in other submissions on the forum but I can’t tell for sure
I’m on my phone right now so i can’t know for sure the amu value, but generally you should aim for no more than $43,000 USD, cheaper is better but a cheap car that’s worse in every way won’t win
I don’t think so, even though there are no explicit rules regarding engine placement. Nor would I assume that rear-engined cars would be allowed either, given that all of the inspirations are front-engined.
