Welcome to the Top Drives 16.0 Update Release Notes! 

We’re adding new cars, new car models, an updated high-res environment, and more. Read on to find out all about it:

NEW

New Cars - Enter the Black Forest and Amalfi Coast Cruising

Right after our biggest car release ever in 15.0 World Expo, we’re keeping the accelerator to the floor and releasing even more new cars! Over 280 new cars from Germany and Italy arrive in Enter the Black Forest and Amalfi Coast Cruising, including models from Alfa Romeo, Audi, BMW and many others.

Here are just a few cars to look out for:

The John Cooper Works GP is the fastest Mini hatchback, with 300bhp! It’ll perform well on slalom and hairpin tracks.

This phenomenal new Porsche has an impressive top speed of 196mph. It’ll perform great on North Loop, and Monaco Narrow Streets specifically!

This monster Pagani will do extremely well on the North Loop and Airfield Runway Drag tracks with its excellent top speed and handling stats!

Plenty of cars have also been corrected, and had their RQ changed too. Check out the full list of corrections here. This list will also be updated with a full list of all new cars after the update is released, so stay tuned!

Duplicate Legendary Fusing

The game changing new feature in this update is the new duplicate Legendary fusing cost. In the past, when fusing a Legendary car, you would need three individual Legendary or Epic rarity cars to consume as fuse material. Now, if you own a duplicate of any Legendary in your garage, you can instead use that car as a single fuse material. This makes it easier than ever to upgrade your Legendary cars!

Please note: the feature will consider legacy rarity when calculating whether it’s a duplicate Legendary or not. Cars you owned as lower rarities that became Legendaries in rarity corrections do not count towards the duplicate eligibility check.

Updated High-Res Environment - Cotswolds

Rounding out the series of updated high resolution environments, the updated Cotswolds environment arrives in 16.0. This means that all existing environments have now been updated to high resolution versions - Top Drives has never looked better! Check out some screenshots:
