Added

15 changes
  • Exhaust (Garage, Upgrades): a new Exhaust category - eco, touring, sport, dual and straight pipes change power, fuel use and the engine's voice; the straight pipe pops and bangs off the throttle

  • Fallen logs across the road can now be shoved aside at a crawl, or winched out of the way

  • New maps: Red Canyon 5 (flash-flood fords) and Red Canyon 6 (long dry haul)

  • Errands: service stops now have an errand board - parcel, fuel and water jobs

  • Cargo Rack (Garage, Cargo): one rack replaces the old cargo presets

  • Camping: buy camp tents and pitch them from the Q wheel

  • Q wheel: hold Q for a ring of quick actions - kits, camp, photo mode

  • Weather: pick rainy, foggy or stormy on the map card once a route has opened them

  • Stickers: a new Flags tab with 44 national flags

  • Wraps (Garage, Looks): seven paint-over designs for every vehicle

  • Ponds on the Pine Valley and Red Canyon routes

  • Halloween look until 1 November, with Halloween wraps

  • Daily streak: drive 5 km a day to build a streak and claim antenna rewards

  • Stony roads: rocky sections that wear out the vehicle above a crawl

  • Camper Van: a free roof colour row

Improved

7 changes
  • Exhaust smoke is lighter and shorter-lived, and the pipe sits tucked under the bumper on the Offroad Truck and the Crew Cab Pickup

  • Sound: every engine has its own voice now, the turbo whine and blow-off are quieter, and the menu hover sound is shorter

  • Main menu: quieter at night (the crickets don't drown everything out) and a calmer backing track

  • Suspension: more bump travel and a softer bump stop on every vehicle

  • Engines: acceleration on flat ground is closer to a real truck

  • Glacier Peak: new snowy firs and spruces

  • Photo mode now starts from the Q wheel

Fixed

3 changes
  • Fallen logs no longer feel weightless - real weight, and a winch pull doesn't fling them

  • The route-start info card no longer breaks during the Halloween look

  • Pine Valley's larch trees no longer show their lit tops when seen from below
