Soft-body physics

The BeamNG physics engine is at the core of the most detailed and authentic vehicle simulation you’ve ever seen in a game. Every component of a vehicle is simulated in real-time using nodes (mass points) and beams (springs). Crashes feel visceral, as the game uses an incredibly accurate damage model.

Vehicles

BeamNG.drive offers dozens of refined, completely customizable vehicles to experiment with. Whether it’s a compact car or massive truck, players can tweak away at all the moving parts to create just about any driving experience desirable. Wheels, suspension, engines, and more; everything is under your control.

Environments

There’s plenty to discover while driving. Featuring 12 sprawling, beautiful open-world environments, the terrain feels as vast and diverse as the gameplay options. Test out a new setup through tropical jungle passages, barren deserts, urban boulevards, packed highways, and much more.

And more

Featured mod

Hirochi Talent

by Docroswagge

This month’s featured mod is the Hirochi Talent by Docroswagge.

Hirochi launched the next-generation kei truck, the Talent, in 1992 to compete with other kei trucks. It went through a facelift once in 1996, and it was produced until 2002.

This charming little guy features a 4-cylinder engine and a supercharger for increased performance, and unlike regular kei trucks, Talent comes with a rear mounted engine.
