Behold, a sports car:

That's not a sports car. This is a sports car:

Just remember to have at least one other person with you to help tip it back up.

 

[RACECAR]

Gee whiz, he found the one youtuber that agrees with him (Who manages to be less of a moron about it. Funny that..)

 

[Nakano219]

It's not just PD who didn't get the memo - someone should really tell Kunos that everyday hatchbacks and SUVs aren't good for sim racing, so they can remove the Alfa Junior from ACE. And the Audi RS3. And the Hyundai i20. And the VW Golf. And the Abarth 500. And the Alpine A290. It's only a third of their whole entire current car list.

Or maybe people enjoy driving cars like their real life ones after all.

Your Sports Car is lame. Mine is the business.

Ah the legend agrees.

SuperGT - “Kaz please!! If you are watching this…..”


Sorry you disagree but the reality remains. Hatchbacks people drive daily to do errands are garbage for sim racing. People are tired of it. Even Steve Super GT agrees

A youtuber agrees with you.And?
You are getting tedious now with it.

 

[Revengel]

I’m 100% correct. Three of the 4 cars are hatchbacks.

I support your right to an opinion. You are not a fan of the cars presented. Not a problem for me.

However, here is how you are technically incorrect: how these cars are classified. Look at insurance companies for the truth. Don't take my word for it - contact your own insurance carrier.

A super quick search on Google produced the following quote:

"Insurance companies typically classify the Toyota C-Hatchback (also known as the Toyota C-HR) as a subcompact crossover SUV "


That says to me it's not a hatchback by industry standards.

Very lightweight, which should be great for cornering, but it's also zero-wheel-drive with an unreliable powertrain and gripless plastic castors. Like the perfect mix between a shopping trolley and a Fiat.

 

[Voodoovaj]

I'm not new, but i missed complaining about physics.

You don't have to insult if you don't like someone's taste of update.

Not liking the update is fine. I've disliked updates as well. But given the (I don't know how you missed the) issues with physics, it's seems like trolling when you question why they updated it.

 

[MARcFuLLa]

Performance loss in PS4 version, confirmed? I didn't read the whole topic..
I’m on a PS4 Pro, and had a signifcant fps loss

And the Audi RS3. And the Hyundai i20. And the VW Golf. And the Abarth 500. And the Alpine A290. It's only a third of their whole entire current car list.

In all seriousness, GT has never been exclusively about cars "good for sim-racing", lots of sheet-boxes and some more sportier cars, some decently upgradable for track use and a bunch of "real" sport cars.

I find it curious that a guy who has played 8 GTs gets irritated because they add weird cars, moms cars and so on. It has always been a good chunk of the collection.

And they can be fun too.

There are games more dedicated to "real" race cars "good for sim-racing", even on console, like ACC. And on PC there's much more.

 

[05XR8]

Yes, down with the hatches!

 

[MatskiMonk]

Reality of the update having, “One car that will be popular and the other 3 less so”. Super GT gets it. You don’t

Lol. A yOuTuber ProvEs My point!

 

[XSRacing111]

The PP triangles are gone. Needless to say I’m very happy.
I will be busy trying out these new engine swaps and the Formula car.

Edit: The CH-R when fully tuned is still slower than my stock 2009 Ford Edge.
I don’t know if I should laugh or cry.

 

[hyperspeed980]

Is this your first Gran Turismo?

You can say that again.

 

[05XR8]

Put it this way, good thing those "Haha, ya Momz car!" were built. We wouldn't have had a boom in car culture the way it exploded in the late eighties through to today.

Small hatches allowed early low cost access to building cars that would smoke more expensive cars.

 

[Old_Richard]

Mate,dont rise to it.There seems to be a lot of new people on here,no bad thing mind,that have a lot to say.
End of the day if they dont like it,dont play it.Its not my most favourite choice of cars but I will get some milage,no pun intended,and fun out of them. 👍

How do electric cars work in this game in terms of refuelling in the endurance races? Genuine question as I've never used one

 

[PlatoonRacer]

If you don’t like a new car… don’t use it? There’s over 500 others to pick from.

Having used both the Hyundai N 2025 VGT (the non-Gr.1 version) and the Audi E-Tron VGT in 800 and 900 pp races, these racing EVs have impressive range and they do not run out of juice in one lap.

To answer your question, you can't control how much charge you give to them. They will be fully charged whenever you do pit stops, which can delay your races.

 

[Seikenfreak]

Boy I'll tell yah hwhat.. even if the patches don't always deliver, these threads do

I really want to add to this discussion but my brain is telling me no, it's not worth it lol

 

[OldandSlow]

Haven’t clicked the ticket. I remembered that will be just another car I can’t delete.

I sold mine.

If you can't do it in your sleep, do you even sports car, bro? 😐

No doors!? Checkmate, atheists.

 

[Hlavco]

I'm very happy to see this generation Civic hatchback in the game. Feels like most racing games only ever go back to the generation after it, and use the CRX to represent this period of Hondas. The CRX is also one of my favorite cars, so that's understandable, but seeing the Civic is refreshing.

Less refreshing? The price, wow.

 

[05XR8]

I sold mine.

Oh, I sold the one I was gifted and deleted the one I bought as the test.
If we get Pikes Peak I might buy it again.

Edit: When I back out of this thread and clicked on "Forum", looking at this picture:

The update is a very well done car update. If the F3500-A was removed it'd look like a used car yard with the owner showing off their new Ioniq 5N.

 

[valdir 1726]

This updat hv a huge bug... the cars after reach some amount of spees begin to go inside the floor... literaly inside floor!!! This updat need hotfix...

 

[MRZ-LP1211]

It has a 5th door then it’s a hatchback. 4 door sedan. 2 door sports car.

So...this is a sports car then?

 

[Keef]

Okay, after playing around a bit I've decided I am upset with the C-HR implementation.

The car is miserable...which is why it's perfect for a transmission swap of engine/drivetrain swap. This is likely how the real cars will be modified in the future, similar to what has happened with Honda Insights and CRZs. People just remove the hybrid gubbins and install a K-series and turn the car into what it should've been. The same goes for this C-HR but unfortunately PD doesn't allow transmission or drivetrain swaps which renders the car basically useless for anything other than as a starter car in starter races, but at 26,000 credits it's too expensive to buy as a starter car. There's also a severe lack of slow-car endurance races which means I can't use this thing's fuel mileage to win a race.

 

[XSquareStickIt]

Oh hey, talk about timing; this just showed up on my sub feed

​

 

[Zenwarrior]

I personally don't mind everyday cars like ioniq, chr, jimny, etc and even VGT. But PD really should step up their game and give us modern race cars, iconic older race cars, and returning classics like R390 GT1, BMW v12 lmr, audi r15, subaru legacy wagon, mitsubishi fto, amemiya asparadrink rx7 gt300, arta garaiya gt300, nissan 300zx gts, etc. These should be the priority instead of giving us everyday cars, or at least add 1 real race car to the mix each update. Last time we get real race car was the GT one almost 1 year ago
