It is interesting just how many large Renaults we've received recently.

The Kangoo, the Avantime, now the Captur. Also the Espace F1, which is obviously a completely different kettle of fish entirely but is still also technically a Renault and large.
I hope we will get the Super 5 😁 my first car (and I learned to drive with a 4L, but I was 12, and it is in the game)
 
Still, at least in video game terms, it shouldn't be an issue, but PD insists on locking customization for them even when it can "pretend" the way real CVTs pretend to have gears. It makes the CR-V (and CH-R for that matter) unusable compared to the other added crossovers. It cannot take any serious power upgrades when the aero for the car suggests otherwise :indiff:
Given how VERY Involved Manufacturers can be with how they want to be represented (Something that very well CAN affect what cars end up in the game contrary to some colorful imaginations), I would not be surprised if they specifically requested PD to not allow that. Think about how contradictory it would be if Manufacturer decides to use a game to promote its EVs, only for the players to be left unchecked and completely rip out the very component central to what they are advertising (Imagine Polestar or Xioami's big EV push...only to be ignored because someone can just swap it out with something else) At the time when we could do that with The CR-Z in GT5 (or was it GT6?), EVs weren't being nearly as pushed front and center as they are now.

One doesn't have to look far for evidence of such a possibility as ironically, a car with an ICE demonstrated this: The Mazda Spirit Racing 12R.

I really wouldn't consider the Kangoo as "large," it's as big as a Transit Connect.
The Captur too: it's a B-segment CUV, based on the Clio and Micra/Juke platform. It's about two inches longer than a Clio, although it's also two inches wider and two inches taller.
 
Not long now until the Kaptur gets released...

It's absolutely lovely to see the French roster expand over the last year especially. Both smart classic picks and some returning GT icons, it's the formula I'd like to see for every brand. :D
 
Just thinking back to when I initially saw the cars under covers, I had thought what if the car in the left was a four door from Australia.
Nothing really fits the shape except maybe a Statesman or a Chrysler, but the nose is hard to find a match in Australian muscle car designs.
 
Hmm, not sure this is going to go down well with the community...

Crazy if it's a PD build. Can't see the details too much on my phone.

Edit2: Are those HRE wheels?

Ok, it's a Renault Captur and a Mazda RX-7, for me. I don't even want to look at the ruined Camaro.. Sorry for being negative about it. But I'm positive about the other two, especially the Mazda
 
That Renault Captur is RHD, so it looks like it's a continuation of the UKDM models of the Peugeot 2008 and Nissan Qashqai.

EDIT: I'll await till it the dials reveal it's in imperial units or metric (JDM) first.
